“O Govinda! Feeling Your separation, | am considering a moment to be like twelve
years or more. Tears are flowing from My eyes like torrents of rain, and | am feeling
all vacant in the world in Your absence.” (Siksastaka 7) This is the perfectional
stage of chanting the Hare Krsna mantra and eating the fruit of love of Godhead, as
exhibited by Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu. One should not artificially imitate this stage,
but if one is serious and sincerely follows the regulative principles and chants the
Hare Krsna mantra, the time will come when these symptoms will appear. Tears
will fill his eyes, he will be unable to chant distinctly the maha-mantra, and his
heart will throb in ecstasy. Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu says that one should not
imitate this, but a devotee should long for the day to come when such symptoms
of trance will automatically appear in his body.
