TO THE SIX GOSVĀMĪS OF VṚNDĀVANA
A los Seis Gosvāmīs de Vṛndāvana
lokānāṁ hita-kāriṇau tri-bhuvane mānyau śaraṇyākarau
rādhā-kṛṣṇa-padāravinda-bhajanānandena mattālikau
vande rūpa-sanātanau raghu-yugau śrī-jīva-gopālakau
lokānāṁ hita-kāriṇau tri-bhuvane mānyau śaraṇyākarau
rādhā-kṛṣṇa-padāravinda-bhajanānandena mattālikau
vande rūpa-sanātanau raghu-yugau śrī-jīva-gopālakau
“I offer my respectful obeisances unto the six Gosvāmīs, namely, Śrī Sanātana Gosvāmī, Śrī Rūpa Gosvāmī, Śrī Raghunātha Bhaṭṭa Gosvāmī, Śrī Raghunātha dāsa Gosvāmī, Śrī Jīva Gosvāmī and Śrī Gopāla Bhaṭṭa Gosvāmī, who are very expert in scrutinizingly studying all the revealed scriptures with the aim of establishing eternal religious principles for the benefit of all human beings. Thus they are honored all over the three worlds, and they are worth taking shelter of because they are absorbed in the mood of the gopīs and are engaged in the transcendental loving service of Rādhā and Kṛṣṇa.”
"Ofrezco mis respetuosas reverencias a los seis Gosvāmīs, Śrī Sanātana Gosvāmī, Śrī Rūpa Gosvāmī, Śrī Raghunātha Bhaṭṭa Gosvāmī, Śrī Raghunātha Dāsa Gosvāmī, Śrī Jīva Gosvāmī y Śrī Gopāla Bhaṭṭa Gosvāmī, quienes son muy expertos en estudiar minuciosamente todas las Escrituras reveladas con el propósito de establecer principios religiosos eternos en beneficio de todos los seres humanos. Por eso a ellos se los honra por todos los tres mundos y merece la pena refugiarse en ellos porque están absortos en el humor de las gopīs y están dedicados al amoroso y trascendental servicio de Rādhā y Kṛṣṇa".
