Golden Things.

A collage of golden things, which can all be seen around the time of Gaura-purnima. In the centre is the beautiful Lord Chaitanya from the Pancha Tattva deities in Mayapur.

Most of our readers know that Lord Chaitanya is golden-complexioned and has many 'golden' names such as Gauranga - golden limbed, Gaurachandra - golden moon and Gaura-natha-raj - great golden dancer. But some may not, so I thought I'd better mention it!

"May the Supreme Lord who is known as the son of Srimati Sachidevi be transcendentally situated in the innermost chambers of your heart. Resplendent with the radiance of molten gold, He has appeared in the Age of Kali by His causeless mercy to bestow what no incarnation has ever offered before: the most sublime and radiant mellow of devotional service, the mellow of conjugal love." Chaitanya-charitamrita Adi 1.4
