Narottama Dasa Thakura wrote many devotional songs about the spiritual master, the Devotees, devotional service, the six Goswamis, Gaura-Nityananda and Radha-Krishna. Although composed with sweet melodies in simple Bengali language, Narottama Dasa’s songs give shastric siddhanta and devotional inspiration. 

Srila Prabhupada often sang these bhajanas. Considering them non-different from Vedic shastra, He quoted them in his Bhagavatam lectures. Prarthana and Prema-bhakti-chandrika are Narottama’s most famous works.

The following excerpt comes from Prema-bhakti-chandrika: “Radha and Krishna are my goal in life and death, and They are the masters of my breath. Performing my bhajana only for Them, I rise and fall in the ocean of prema. I pray that I can always maintain this conception within my heart as my highest ideal.

 “Let me serve the lotus feet of Radha-Govinda. Let my mind be filled with dedication to Their divine forms that defeat the beauty of Cupid and Rati. With a straw between my teeth I fall at Their divine feet and present my humble appeal: ‘0 Kishora-Kishori! 0 son of Nanda Maharaja-Shyamasundara! And 0 daughter of King Vrishabhanu, Shri Radha. You enchant even Hari, and Your bodily complexion is the color of a golden lotus. 0 Krishna, with a bodily colour like an indranila gem (blue jewel), Your beauty mocks Cupid.

‘0 topmost dancers Shri Radha and Shri Krishna-please dance within my mind. 0 You whose beauty increases the charm of Your dazzling ornaments, day and night I only wish that I shall go on singing Your glories in great ecstasy.”

Narottama Dasa serves Shrimati Radhika as Chamaka-manjari. His samadhi is in Radha Gokulananda’s Temple courtyard.

Кришна как-то сказал Махарадже Нанде: “Мой дорогой отец, ведь мы живем не в городах, не в селеньях и не деревнях. Мы, обитатели лесов, всегда живем в лесах и на холмах”.

Сегодня окунулись в атмосферу священного леса Бихарван, который все еще остается тем же Вриндаваном, каким он был много лет тому назад. Здесь живет около тысячи коров, которые, по словам наших Ачарьев, родственницы коров сурабхи в духовном мире. Вслед за чудным киртаном, исполненным глубокой преданности, последовало невероятно увлекательное занятие. Мы принялись гладить, обнимать и кормить множество великолепных ласковых коров и их телят. Этот день позволил нам чуть-чуть соприкоснуться с тем, что так дорого Господу!

Krishna once said to Nanda Maharaja, “My dear father, our home is not in the cities or towns or villages. Being forest dwellers, we always live in the forest and on the hills.” Today, we experienced the atmosphere of the sacred forest of Biharvan which still retains the ambience of what Vrindavan was like many years ago. It is home to a thousand cows which our acharyas tell us are cousins of the surabhi cows in the spiritual world. A lovely kirtan filled with deep devotion was followed by an incredibly captivating class. We then had the joy of petting, hugging, and feeding many gorgeous and affectionate cows and their calves. It was a day that offered us a glimpse into that which is dear to the Lord!
