holy places, although he was in the dress of a mendicant and had no hair dressing nor a bed on which to lie. Thus he was always unseen by his various relatives. ( Bhäg . 3.1.18‑19) O Lord, You are pure, therefore Your complexion is pure golden. You are situated in Your own abode Çré Navadvépa as Çré Caitanya Mahäprabhu, the combined form of the energy and energetic. Mäyä is Your eternal potency. You, the independent and supremely pure Çré Gauräìga, eternally reside in Mäyäpur, which is manifested by Your cit‑çakti and is untouched by Your material energy. ( Bhäg . 4.7.26) The method of worship appropriate for this yuga is described in these words ( Bhäg . 11.5.19,31‑34): King Nimi inquired: “In what colors and forms does the Supreme Personality of Godhead appear in each of the different ages, and with what names and by what types of regulative principles is the Lord worshiped in human society?” “O King, in this way people in Dväpara‑yuga worshiped the Lord of the universe. In Kali‑yuga they also worship the Supreme Personality of Godhead by the regulations of the revealed scriptures. Kindly now hear of that from me. “In the age of Kali, intelligent persons perform congregational chanting to worship the incarnation of Godhead who constantly sings the name of Kåñëa. Although His complexion is not blackish, He is Kåñëa Himself. He is accompanied by His associates, servants, weapons, and confidential companions.” “We offer our respectful obeisances unto the lotus feet of Him, the Lord, upon whom one should always meditate. He destroys insults to His devotees. He removes the distresses of His devotees and satisfies their desires. He, the abode of all holy places and the shelter of all sages, is worshipable by Lord Çiva and Lord Brahmä. He is the boat of the demigods for crossing the ocean of birth and death.” ( Bhäg . 11.5.33) “We offer our respectful obeisances unto the lotus feet of the Lord, upon whom one should always meditate. He left His householder life, leaving aside His eternal consort, whom even the denizens of heaven adore. He went into the forest to deliver the fallen souls, who are put into illusion by material energy.” ( Bhäg . 11.5.34)
