TEXT 309

ananta guṇa raghunāthera ke karibe lekhā?
raghunāthera niyama,--yena pāṣāṇera rekhā


SYNONYMS

ananta guṇa—unlimited transcendental attributes; raghunāthera—of Raghunātha dāsa; ke—who; karibe lekhā—can write; raghunāthera—of Raghunātha dāsa; niyama—the strict regulative principles; yena—like; pāṣāṇera rekhā—lines on a stone.


TRANSLATION

Who could list the unlimited transcendental attributes of Raghunātha dāsa? His strict regulative principles were exactly like lines on a stone.


PURPORT

The words pāṣāṇera rekhā are very significant. Raghunātha dāsa Gosvāmī followed the regulative principles so strictly and rigidly that they were compared to the lines on a stone. As such lines cannot be erased at any time, so the regulative principles observed by Śrī Raghunātha dāsa Gosvāmī could not be changed under any circumstances.
