It is simply happened by the mercy of Kṛṣṇa and His devotee. Vedaiś ca sarvair aham eva vedyaḥ ([[Vanisource:BG 15.15|BG 15.15]]). Vedeṣu durlabham. Practical purpose of studying Vedas, vedānti... That vedānti means to understand Kṛṣṇa. But vedeṣu durlabham. At the same time, it is said &amp;quot;It is very, very difficult to understand Kṛṣṇa by becoming so-called Vedānti.&amp;quot; Actually Vedānta means Anta means the last word. The last work of knowledge is Kṛṣṇa. Janmādy asya yataḥ ([[Vanisource:SB 1.1.1|SB 1.1.1]]). Ahaṁ sarvasya prabhavaḥ ([[Vanisource:BG 10.8|BG 10.8]]). So to understand Kṛṣṇa, manuṣyāṇāṁ sahasreṣu kaścid yatati siddhaye ([[Vanisource:BG 7.3|BG 7.3]]). But it can be done through the mercy of devotee. Vedeṣu durlabham adurlabham ātma-bhaktau (Bs. 5.33). Adurlabha. If you satisfy a pure devotee of Kṛṣṇa, he can give you Kṛṣṇa like this, &amp;quot;Take it.&amp;quot; Vedeṣu durlabham adurlabham ātma-bhaktau (Bs. 5.33). Bhakta can do that. Bhaktyā mām abhijānāti ([[Vanisource:BG 18.55|BG 18.55]]). You come through bhakta or come through bhakti.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

There are two classes of men. Dhīra, sober, and other class, rogue. So both of them will be pleased by kṛṣṇot-kīrtana. You have practical experience. When there is kṛṣṇa-kīrtana, people, all classes of people, become very much pleased, and they join. As soon as your kīrtana will be pure saṅkīrtana, not artificial, not professional... There are many professional dancer. That will not attract. But, even if you do not know the art of dancing, if you simply dance in ecstasy for Kṛṣṇa&amp;#039;s love, that will be appreciated by everyone. That will be appreciated by everyone. Kṛṣṇot-kīrtana-gāna-nartana-parau. These are the art. One does not require to become a Vedāntist. Simply if one chants Kṛṣṇa&amp;#039;s name, holy name, and in ecstasy dances, he&amp;#039;s more than a Vedāntist. Actually vedānti means one who knows the ultimate knowledge, veda. Veda means knowledge. And anta means ultimate, vedānta. Then what is that ultimate knowledge? Kṛṣṇa. Vedaiś ca sarvair aham eva vedyam ([[Vanisource:BG 15.15|BG 15.15]]). That is ultimate knowledge. So one who has understood Kṛṣṇa and Kṛṣṇa&amp;#039;s love, he&amp;#039;s dancing, then what more vedānta can do? That is the first class realization of vedānta. Kṛṣṇot-kīrtana-gāna-nartana-parau. So we should always offer our respect to the Gosvāmīs, ei chay gosāi yāra tāra mui dāsa, Narottama dāsa Ṭhākura says. Tāṅ-sabāra pada-reṇu mora pañca-grās. We should be so humble, respectful to the Gosvāmīs. Not only these Gosvāmīs, anyone who is serving the Gosvāmīs. The Gosvāmīs has also the mission.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

You are not studying Vedānta, and simply chanting Hare Kṛṣṇa. What kind of sannyāsī You are?&amp;quot;—this question was put by Prakāśānanda Sarasvatī to Caitanya Mahāprabhu-Caitanya Mahāprabhu replied, &amp;quot;My dear sir, I am a great fool.&amp;quot; Guru more mūrkha dekhi karila śāsana: ([[Vanisource:CC Adi 7.71|CC Adi 7.71]]) &amp;quot;My guru saw Me a great fool number one; therefore he has chastised Me.&amp;quot; What is that? That &amp;quot; &amp;#039;You cannot read Vedānta. You chant Hare Kṛṣṇa.&amp;#039; So my Guru Mahārāja has ordered Me like that. But by chanting only, I get ecstasy, I realize, like that.&amp;quot; So the idea is Caitanya Mahāprabhu was not a mūrkha, fool. He is God Himself. And besides that, even in His līlā, pastimes as human being, He was a great learned scholar. His name was Nimāi Paṇḍita. He was not ordinary. He&amp;#039;s paṇḍita. His education is proved when He explained ātmārāma śloka in sixty-four ways.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;This one verse He explained in sixty-four ways. Just see His learning. Not only that, when He was sixteen years old only, a great paṇḍita came to Navadvīpa.
