			<span class="link">[[Vanisource:CC Madhya 8.139\|CC Madhya 8.139, Purport]]: </span><div style="display: inline;" class="purport text"><p style="display: inline;">One should execute his spiritual activities in the svarūpa-gata stage of consciousness. He should also chant such spiritual mantras as oṁ namo bhagavate vāsudevāya and the cin-mayī Gāyatrī—klīṁ kṛṣṇāya govindāya gopījana-vallabhāya svāhā and klīṁ kāma-devāya vidmahe puṣpa-bāṇāya dhīmahi tan no ’naṅgaḥ pracodayāt. These are the Kāma-gāyatrī or kāma-bīja mantras. One should be initiated by a bona fide spiritual master and worship Kṛṣṇa with these transcendental mantras.</p>
			<p>As explained by Kṛṣṇadāsa Kavirāja Gosvāmī in the previous verse and the current verse:</p>
			:vṛndāvane "aprākṛta navīna madana"
			:kāma-gāyatrī kāma-bīje yāṅra upāsana
			:puruṣa, yoṣit, kibā sthāvara-jaṅgama
			:sarva-cittākarṣaka, sākṣāt manmatha-madana
			<p>A person who is properly purified and initiated by the spiritual master worships the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Kṛṣṇa, by chanting this mantra, the Kāma-gāyatrī with the kāma-bīja. As the Bhagavad-gītā (18.65) confirms, one should engage in transcendental worship in order to be fit for being attracted by Kṛṣṇa, the all-attractive:</p>
			:man-manā bhava mad-bhakto mad-yājī māṁ namaskuru
			:mām evaiṣyasi satyaṁ te pratijāne priyo ’si me
			<p>"Always think of Me and become My devotee. Worship Me and offer your homage unto Me. Thus you will come to Me without fail. I promise you this because you are My very dear friend."</p>

			<div id="CCMadhya9239240_4" class="quote" parent="CC_Madhya-lila" book="CC" index="1954" link="CC Madhya 9.239-240" link_text="CC Madhya 9.239-240">
			<span class="link">[[Vanisource:CC Madhya 9.239-240\|CC Madhya 9.239-240, Translation and Purport]]: </span><div style="display: inline;" class="trans text"><p style="display: inline;">There is no scripture equal to the Brahma-saṁhitā as far as the final spiritual conclusion is concerned. Indeed, that scripture is the supreme revelation of the glories of Lord Govinda, for it reveals the topmost knowledge about Him. Since all conclusions are briefly presented in the Brahma-saṁhitā, it is essential among all the Vaiṣṇava literatures.</p>
			</div>
			<div class="purport text"><p>The Brahma-saṁhitā is a very important scripture. Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu acquired the Fifth Chapter from the Ādi-keśava temple. In that Fifth Chapter, the philosophical conclusion of acintya-bhedābheda-tattva (simultaneous oneness and difference) is presented. The chapter also presents methods of devotional service, the eighteen-syllable Vedic hymn, discourses on the soul, the Supersoul and fruitive activity, an explanation of Kāma-gāyatrī, kāma-bīja and the original Mahā-Viṣṇu, and a detailed description of the spiritual world, specifically Goloka Vṛndāvana.</p>

Those syllables are compared to moons that arise in Kṛṣṇa. Thus all three worlds are filled with desire.</p>

			<span class="link">[[Vanisource:TLC 10\|Teachings of Lord Caitanya, Chapter 10]]: </span><div style="display: inline;" class="text"><p style="display: inline;">The Vedic hymn known as Kāma-gāyatrī describes the face of Kṛṣṇa as the king of all moons. In metaphorical language, there are many different full moons, but they are all one in Kṛṣṇa. There is the full moon of His face, the full moons of His cheeks, the full moon of the sandalwood-pulp spot on His forehead, which is a half-moon, and the beautiful full moons of His fingernails and toenails. In this way there are twenty-four and a half moons, and Kṛṣṇa is the central figure of all of them.</p>

			<span class="link">[[Vanisource:TLC 31\|Teachings of Lord Caitanya, Chapter 31]]: </span><div style="display: inline;" class="text"><p style="display: inline;">Lord Kṛṣṇa is worshiped by the Gāyatrīmantra, and the specific mantra by which He is worshiped is called Kāma-gāyatrī. The Vedic literature explains that that sound vibration which can elevate one from mental concoction is called Gāyatrī. The Kāma-gāyatrīmantra is composed of 24 1/2 syllables thus: klīṁ kāma-devāya vidmahe puṣpa-bāṇāya dhīmahi tan no ’naṅgaḥ pracodayāt. This Kāma-gāyatrī is received from the spiritual master when the disciple is advanced in chanting Hare Kṛṣṇa, Hare Kṛṣṇa, Kṛṣṇa Kṛṣṇa, Hare Hare/ Hare Rāma, Hare Rāma, Rāma Rāma, Hare Hare. In other words, this Kāma-gāyatrīmantra and saṁskāra, or reformation of a perfect brāhmaṇa, are offered by the spiritual master when he sees that his disciple is advanced in spiritual knowledge. Even then, the Kāma-gāyatrī is not uttered under certain circumstances. In any case, the chanting of Hare Kṛṣṇa is sufficient to elevate one to the highest spiritual platform.</p>

The object is Kṛṣṇa, who is the ever green Cupid, and by utterance of klīm Kṛṣṇa is worshiped. It is also stated in the Gopāla-tāpanī Upaniṣad that when Kṛṣṇa is spoken of as Cupid one should not think of Him as the Cupid of this material world.</p>

When one understands the truth about this life but is not completely cleansed of material contamination, he is not factually situated in the transcendental abode, Vṛndāvana, although he may understand spiritual life. In this stage he can utter the Kāma-gāyatrī with the kāma-bīja. When, however, he becomes free from all bodily sex urges, he can actually attain the supreme abode of Vṛndāvana.</p>

In other words, that which delivers one from material entanglement is called Gāyatrī. An explanation of the Gāyatrī mantra can be found in the ([[Vanisource:CC Madhya 21.125|CC Madhya 21.125]]):</p>
:kāma-gāyatrī-mantra-rūpa, haya kṛṣṇera svarūpa,
:sārdha-cabbiśa akṣara tāra haya
:se akṣara "candra" haya, kṛṣṇe kari' udaya,
:trijagat kailā kāmamaya
<p>The Kāma-gāyatrī mantra is just like a Vedic hymn, but it is the Supreme Personality of Godhead Himself. There is no difference between the Kāma-gāyatrī and Kṛṣṇa. Both are composed of twenty-four and a half transcendental syllables (see Madhya 21.125–29). The mantra depicted in letters is also Kṛṣṇa, and the mantra rises just like the moon. Due to this, there is a perverted reflection of desire in human society and among all kinds of living entities. In the mantra klīṁ kāma-devāya vidmahe puṣpa-bāṇāya dhīmahi tan no ’naṅgaḥ pracodayāt, Kṛṣṇa is called Kāma-deva, Puṣpa-bāṇa and Anaṅga. Kāma-deva is Madana-mohana, the Deity who establishes our relationship with Kṛṣṇa; Puṣpa-bāṇa ("He who carries an arrow made of flowers") is Govinda, the Personality of Godhead who accepts our devotional service; and Anaṅga is Gopījana-vallabha, who satisfies all the gopīs and is the ultimate goal of life. This Kāma-gāyatrī (klīṁ kāma-devāya vidmahe puṣpa-bāṇāya dhīmahi tan no ’naṅgaḥ pracodayāt) simply does not belong to this material world. When one is advanced in spiritual understanding, he can worship the Supreme Personality of Godhead with his spiritually purified senses and fulfill the desires of the Lord.</p>

:mām evaiṣyasi satyaṁ te pratijāne priyo ’si me
<p>"Always think of Me and become My devotee. Worship Me and offer your homage unto Me. Thus you will come to Me without fail. I promise you this because you are My very dear friend." ([[Vanisource:BG 18.65|BG 18.65]])</p>
<p>In the Brahma-saṁhitā (5.27–28) it is stated:</p>
:atha veṇu-ninādasya trayī-mūrti-mayī gatiḥ
:phurantī praviveśāśu mukhābjāni svayambhuvaḥ
:gāyatrīṁ gāyatas tasmād adhigatya saroja-jaḥ
:saṁskṛtaś cādi-guruṇā dvijatām agamat tataḥ
:trayyā prabuddho ’tha vidhir vijñāta-tattva-sāgaraḥ
:tuṣṭāva veda-sāreṇa stotreṇānena keśavam
<p>“Then Gāyatrī, mother of the Vedas, having been manifested by the divine sound of Śrī Kṛṣṇa's flute, entered the lotus mouth of Brahmā, the self-born, through his eight earholes. Thus the lotus-born Brahmā received the Gāyatrī mantra, which had sprung from the song of Śrī Kṛṣṇa's flute. In this way he attained twice-born status, having been initiated by the supreme, primal preceptor, Godhead Himself. Enlightened by the recollection of that Gāyatrī, which embodies the three Vedas, Brahmā became acquainted with the expanse of the ocean of truth.

<p>The vibration of Kṛṣṇa's flute is the origin of the Vedic hymns. Lord Brahmā, who is seated on a lotus flower, heard the sound vibration of Kṛṣṇa's flute and was thereby initiated by the Gāyatrī mantra.</p>
