<p>Allen Ginsberg: What will that be, your own writings?</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: No, it is the authorized translation of Rūpa Gosvāmī's book, Bhakti-rasāmṛta-sindhu.</p>
<p>Allen Ginsberg: Whose...?</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Rūpa Gosvāmī, Lord Caitanya's principal disciple.</p>
<p>Allen Ginsberg: Uhuh.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Rūpa Gosvāmī. There are Six Gosvāmīs, direct disciples of Lord Caitanya. Er, not, Six Gosvāmīs and three other confidential.</p>
<p>Allen Ginsberg: Yeah.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: So, our... About the Six Gosvāmīs, Rūpa Gosvāmī is the principal.</p>
<p>Allen Ginsberg: Rūpa Gos...</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Rūpa Gosvāmī. He was finance minister in the government of Nawab Hussain Shah in Bengal. But when Lord Caitanya started His movement, he was captivated and he resigned his service, government service and joined Him. And he wrote immense literature, Gosvāmīs. And that Desai was talking that Narottama dāsa Ṭhākura, he says, rūpa-raghunātha-pade haibe ākuti kabe hāma bujhaba se yugala-pīriti: conjugal love of Rādhā and Kṛṣṇa, one can understand when they go through the literatures presented by these Gosvāmīs. So his first book is Bhakti-rasāmṛta-sindhu. Devotion of, Nectar of Devotion. That is very authorized book. Quotation from various Vedic literature about Rādhā-Kṛṣṇa and the different stages of relationship with Kṛṣṇa, śānta-rasa, dāsya-rasa, admiration. God is Great. This is also one stage, appreciating the greatness of God. Then further development, dāsya-rasa, willing to serve. Oh! God is so great, and I must serve service because everyone of us are serving somebody. So why not serve the Supreme? Nobody is free from service because we are constitutionally the servant. Either we become the servant of the Great or māyā. Just like in any condition of our lives, we have to abide by the laws of the state. If he says that we don't abide then come to prisonhouse. You will be forced. Similarly, māyā and Kṛṣṇa. If we don't abide by Kṛṣṇa, then come to māyā. He cannot be free. That is not our position. Freedom is frustration.</p>
