From the Preface of The Nectar of Devotion, dated April 13, 1970

The Nectar of Devotion is specifically presented for persons who are now engaged in the Krishna consciousness movement. I beg to offer my sincere thanks to all my friends and disciples who are helping me to push forward the Krishna consciousness movement in the Western countries, and I beg to acknowledge, with thanks, the contribution made by my beloved disciple Sriman Jayananda Brahmachari. My thanks are due as well to the directors of ISKCON Press, who have taken so much care in publishing this great literature. Hare Krishna.

Prabhupada: (chuckles) Jayananda looks like Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu. (laughter) Yes. He was tall and stout and strong, Chaitanya Mahaprabhu. (laughing) Yes. Very good. And in Vrndavana, when Kirtanananda was given sannyasa, he was looking so nice with this dress and danda, oh, practically all the devotees of Vrndavana came to offer him respect. Yes. On Janmastami day I offered him sannyasa. So many devotees came to see in the temple. So there was a big crowd. He was looking very nice. Chaitanya Mahaprabhu was also very fair-complexioned. So with this dress, persons with fair complexion looks very nice, very attractive. People are not attracted with this dress in kirtan party? (laughs) This bare head with tilak and this dress, they will know that they are coming from, directly from the kingdom of God. (laughs) Actually it is so. They have forgotten God; otherwise they would have received these brahmacharis so nicely. In India, oh, you'll be received just like gods with this dress. Hundreds and thousands of people will come to receive you. Yes. That is sufficient...

Dîkëâ: (sáns. vaiëòava). receiving initiation from a spiritual master. In the Bhaktisandarbha (Anuccheda 283) Jîva Gosvâmî has defined dîkëâ as follows: divyaê jñânaê yato dadyât kuryât pâpasya saôkëayam tasmâd dîkëeti sâ proktâ deäikais tattva-kovikaiì – “Learned exponents of the Absolute Truth declare that the process by which the spiritual master imparts divya-jñâna to the disciple and eradicates all sins is known as dîkëâ.” He then explains divya-jñâna, or divine knowledge: divyaê jñânaê hy atra ärîmati mantre bhagavat svarûpajñânaê tena bhagavatâ-sambandha-viäeña-jñânaê ca – “Divya-jñâna is transcendental knowledge of the Lord’s form and one’s specific relationship with the Lord contained within a mantra.” This means at the time of intiation, the guru gives the disciple a mantra which, in course of time, reveals the particular form of the Lord who is the object of one’s worship and the bhakta’s specific relationship with the Lord in one of the relationships of dâsya, sakhya, vâtsalya, or mâdhurya.

Dîkëâ

Dîkëâ: (sáns. vaiëòava). Recibir iniciación de un maestro espiritual. En el Bhaktisandarbha (Anuccheda 283) Jiva Gosvami define así el dîkëâ: divyaê jñânaê yato dadyât kuryât pâpasya saôkëayam tasmâd dîkëeti sâ proktâ deäikais tattva-kovikaiì “Los sabios expertos en la verdad absoluta declaran que dîkëâ es el proceso mediate el cual el maestro espiritual imparte divya-jñâna al discípulo y erradica todos sus pecados”. Él explica también lo que es divya-jñâna o conocimiento divino: divyaê jñânaê hy atra ärîmati mantre bhagavat svarûpajñânaê tena bhagavatâ-sambandha-viäeña-jñânaê ca . “Divya-jñâna es conocimiento trascendental de la forma del Señor y la relación específica de la persona con el Señor contenida en un mantra”. Esto significa que en el momento de la iniciación el guru da al discípulo un mantra que, con el transcurso del tiempo, revelará la forma particular del Señor que es el objeto de adoración del devoto, así como también la relación específica de este con el Señor en una de las cuatro relaciones de dâsya, sakhya, vâtsalya, or mâdhurya..
