Sri Caitanya-caritamrta states, “Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu is the most benevolent personality in human society because His only desire is to make people happy. His sankirtana movement is especially meant for the purpose of making people happy.” (Adi 9.45 p)
And Srila Prabhupada said of himself, “I have started this Krishna consciousness movement in this country, America, to make people happy: happy in this life, happy in next life. . . . So we are making little our teeny effort, how to make people happy. Our only business is to make people happy. We have no other desire.”
Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu’s mercy and mission have come to us through Srila Prabhupada, through parampara. So we should be happy, and we should make others happy, following in their line, by their grace.
Hare Krishna.
Yours in service,
Giriraj Swami
