Traducción

Caitanya Mahāprabhu continued, “I would like to withdraw My consciousness from You and engage it in material activities, but even though I try, I cannot do so. I am naturally inclined to You only. Your instructions for Me to meditate on You are therefore simply ludicrous. In this way, You are killing Me. It is not very good for You to think of Me as a candidate for Your instructions.

Caitanya Mahāprabhu continuó: «“Me gustaría apartar Mi conciencia de Ti y ocuparla en actividades materiales, pero, por más que lo intento, no puedo. De forma natural, sólo siento inclinación por Ti. Por eso, la instrucción que Me has dado de que medite en Ti, es simplemente ridícula. De ese modo, Me estás matando. No está bien que pienses en Mí como si fuera un candidato a Tus enseñanzas.

Śrīla Rūpa Gosvāmī says in his Bhakti-rasāmṛta-sindhu (1.1.11):

En su Bhakti-rasāmṛta-sindhu (1.1.11), Śrīla Rūpa Gosvāmī dice:

anyābhilāṣitā-śūnyaṁjñāna-karmādy-anāvṛtam
ānakūlyena kṛṣṇānu-
śīlanaṁ bhaktir uttamā
anyābhilāṣitā-śūnyaṁjñāna-karmādy-anāvṛtam
ānakūlyena kṛṣṇānu-
śīlanaṁ bhaktir uttamā

For a pure devotee, there is no scope for indulgence in mystic yoga practice or the cultivation of speculative philosophy. It is indeed impossible for a pure devotee to engage his mind in such unwanted activities. Even if a pure devotee wanted to, his mind would not allow him to do so. That is a characteristic of a pure devotee — he is transcendental to all fruitive activity, speculative philosophy and mystic yoga meditation. The gopīs therefore expressed themselves as follows.

En el devoto puro no tiene cabida la práctica del yoga místico y el cultivo de filosofía especulativa. Al devoto puro le es imposible ocupar la mente en esas actividades indeseables. Incluso si quisiera hacerlo, su mente no se lo permitiría. Ésa es la característica del devoto puro: es trascendental a toda actividad fruitiva, a la filosofía especulativa y a la meditación mística del yoga. Por esa razón, las gopīs se expresaron con las siguientes palabras.
