and they are described in so many Vedic Scriptures. One should think of all those Pastimes, always; that is the best meditation, and the highest ecstasy.
In the  Srimad Bhagwatam , Second Canto, 2nd Chapter, it is confirmed by Sukadeva Goswami that people should always think of the Supreme Personality of Godhead; not only think of Him—one should hear and chant the Name, Fame, and Glories of the Supreme Lord.
Lord Chaitanya now inquired of Ramananda Roy: “What is the best type of meditation?”
And Ramananda replied, “One who always meditates upon the Lotus Feet of Radha and Krishna is the best meditator.”
Srimad Bhagwatam  confirms this in the First Canto, 2nd Chapter, wherein it is stated: “It is only the Supreme Personality of Godhead Who is the Master of all devotees, Whose Name we should always be chanting, and Who should be always thought of in meditation, and worshipped regularly.”
Lord Chaitanya inquired from Ramananda Roy, “Where should a person live, giving up all other pleasures?”
And Ramananda Roy replied that one should give up all other pleasures and should live in Vrindaban, the place where Lord Krishna had so many Pastimes. In the  Srimad Bhagwatam , Tenth Canto, 47th Chapter, it is said by Uddhava that it is best to live at Vrindaban, even as one of the plants or creepers of the land; where the Supreme Lord was, and where the Gopis went, worshipping the Supreme Lord, the ultimate Goal of all Vedic knowledge.
Chaitanya Mahaprabhu now asked, “What is the best subject to hear of?”
And Ramananda Roy replied, “The best subject matter to hear of is the Pastimes of Radha and Krishna.” Actually, when the Pastimes of Radha and Krishna are heard from the right source, one becomes at once a liberated soul. But sometimes it happens that people do not hear the Pastimes of Radha and Krishna from a person who is a realized soul. And they are therefore sometimes misguided. It is stated in the  Srimad Bhagwatam , Tenth Canto, 30th Chapter, that one who hears about the Pastimes of Krishna with the Gopis will attain to the highest platform of devotional service, and he will be freed from the material lust which is overwhelming everyone’s heart. In other words, the actual result of hearing the Pastimes of Radha and Krishna is to get rid of all material lust. If one does not become freed from material lust, then he should not indulge in hearing the Pastimes of Radha and Krishna. Unless we hear from the right source, the Pastimes of Radha and Krishna will be misrepresented, and we shall think that it is an ordinary affair between a man and a woman, and we shall be misguided.
