He says that, "If you are anxious to go back to home, back to Godhead, and become associate with Rādhā and Kṛṣṇa, then the best policy is to take shelter of Nityānanda." Then he says, se sambandha nāhi jā'r, bṛthā janma gelo tā'r: "One who has not been able to contact Nityānanda, then one should think of himself that he has simply spoiled his valuable life." Bṛthā janma gelo. Bṛthā means for nothing, and janma means life. Gelo tā'r, spoiled. Because he has not made connection with Nityānanda.

So here, Narottama dāsa Ṭhākura is singing that "The whole world is suffering under the blazing fire of material existence. Therefore, if one takes the shelter of the lotus feet of Lord Nityānanda," whose birthday is today, 31st January, 1969 . . . so we should relish this instruction of Narottama dāsa Ṭhākura that in order to get relief from the pangs of blazing fire of this material existence, one should take shelter of the lotus feet of Lord Nityānanda, because it is as cooling as the moon rays combined together of millions of moons.

That means one will immediately find peaceful atmosphere. Just like a man works whole day, and if he comes under the moonshine, he feels relief, similarly, any materialistic man who comes under the shelter of Lord Nityānanda will immediately feel that relief.

Then he says:

<div class="quote_verse">
:nitāi-pada-kamala, koṭi-candra-suśītala,
:je chāyāy jagata jurāy,
:heno nitāi bine bhai, rādhā-kṛṣṇa pāite nāi, 
:dharo nitāi-caraṇa du'khani
</div>

He says that, "If you are anxious to go back to home, back to Godhead, and become associate with Rādhā and Kṛṣṇa, then the best policy is to take shelter of Nityānanda." Then he says, se sambandha nāhi jā'r, bṛthā janma gelo tā'r: "One who has not been able to contact Nityānanda, then one should think of himself that he has simply spoiled his valuable life." Bṛthā janma gelo. Bṛthā means for nothing, and janma means life. Gelo tā'r, spoiled. Because he has not made connection with Nityānanda.

The Nityānanda, very name suggests . . . Nitya means eternal; ānanda means pleasure. Material pleasure is not eternal. That is the distinction. Therefore those who are intelligent, they are not interested with this flickering pleasure of material world. Every one of us, as living entity, we are searching after pleasure. But the pleasure which we are seeking, that is flickering, temporary. That is not pleasure. Real pleasure is nityānanda, eternal pleasure. So anyone who has no contact with Nityānanda, it is to be understood that his life is spoiled.
