| His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada |
From Locana Dasa Thakura's Chaitanya Mangala (Sutra-khanda, song 12,
texts 562-565) Lord Chaitanya speaking:
nama-guna-sankirtana vaisnavera shakti
prakasa Karibe ami nija prema-bhakti
Vaisnavas. I will reveal these activities & rejuvenate pure devotional
service unto Myself.
ei mate kali-papa karibe sanhara
sabe cala age pache na kara vichara
In this way I will Destroy all the sins in Kali Yuga. So all of you,
My associates, go ahead and take birth on the earthly planet before My
advent and don't remain behind.
ebe nama sankirtana tikshna khadaga laiya
antara asura jivera phelibe katiya
Taking the sharp sword of the congregational chanting of the Hare
Krsna mantra, (nama-sankirtana) I will root out & destroy the demoniac
mentality in the hearts of all the conditioned souls.
yadi papi chadi dharma dure dese yaya
mora Senapati-bhakta yaibe tathaya
If some sinful people escape and giving up religious principles go to
far off countries, then my Senapati Bhakta will come at that time to
give them Krsna Consciousness. (senapati - a military field commander,
bhakta - a Devotee. Lord Caitanya will empower His own devotee to
spread Krsna Consciousness around the world.)
