Nayanananda on Mahaprabhu
From the poet Nayanananda--
cāri veda ṣaṭ daraśana paṛiyāche se jadi gauranga nahi bhaje kiba tāra adhyayana locana-vihīna jena darapaṇe andhe kibā kāje?
veda vidyā dui kichui nā jānata se jadi gaurāṅga jāne sār nayanānanda bhaṇe sei se sakali jāne sarva siddhi karatale tār
Someone who studies the four Vedas and the six philosophical systems, but does not worship Lord Gauranga, has wasted his time in study. Of what use is a mirror to a blind man?
Whereas one who has no knowledge of the Veda or any other matter, if he knows just this, that Gauranga is the essence of all things, says Nayanananda, he knows everything that needs to be known, and all perfections are within his grasp.
