Chapter

Lord Gaura’s Ecstasy

From The Acaryas Songs Glorifying Lord Gauranga and Govinda.

Sixteen songs turning from the outward image of Chaitanya Mahaprabhu dancing, the subject of the preceding chapter, to His inward emotional states — weeping, being overwhelmed, running toward the ocean at Puri in a state of spiritual absorption — describing bhava, ecstatic devotional emotion, more than outward form.
