Say, after the disappearance of the Gosvāmīns, about 250 years after, the things became most ridiculous. The so-called devotees . . . their representatives still are continuing. They are called prākṛta-sahajiyā. Prākṛta-sahajiyā means taking things very easily. They thought that Rādhā-Kṛṣṇa is just like a boy and girl's lusty affairs. And in this way they took it that sex life as religion. Even Vivekananda, he also criticized, "Vaiṣṇavism is sex religion."
So the things deteriorated in such a way that . . . and similarly, as Advaita Prabhu was afflicted, similarly, Bhaktivinoda Ṭhākura . . . he was at that time a householder, government officer and magistrate. He felt very much, "Oh, Lord Caitanya's movement is so . . . people . . . as soon as one will see that he belongs to the Caitanya sampradāya, he'll deride, 'Oh, these are all rascals, simply taking some sex pleasure. That's all.' "
There were thirteen pseudo-Vaiṣṇavas, thirteen sects: Āula, Bāula, Karttābhajā, Neḍā, Daraveṣa, Sāṅi, Sahajiyā, Sakhībhekī. Sāṅi community . . . you have heard that in London there is a Sāṅi community. Sāṅi Hindu center you have heard from Mukunda? The Sāṅi is there still. So there are thirteen pseudo pretenders belonging to the Caitanya-sampradāya. They are called first Āula, Bāula, Karttābhajā, Neḍā, Daraveṣa, Sāṅi, Sakhībhekī, Gaurāṅga-nagarī, Cūḍādhārī, Ativāḍī and Smārta, Jāta-gosāñi. Like that, thirteen.
So if I describe these thirteen, it will take thirteen hours. So I don't describe all them. But one or two must be described. The most important is the Jāta-gosāñi. Jāti-gosāñi. They created a caste of gosvāmīns, just like they created a caste of brahmins, a caste of gosvāmīns. So this gosvāmī will come by hereditary birth, just like brahmin. So Bhaktivinoda Ṭhākura was very sorry to see the condition of the society.
