Natural Nirvana Company Policies and Reason for Being.

Same as Spiritual World

“In the highest region of Vaikuntha, is the spiritual planet called Krishnaloka. It has three divisions—Dwarka, Mathura and Goloka. Sri Goloka, the highest of all, is also called Braja, Goloka, Svetadvipa and Vrindavana. That abode is manifested within the material world by the will of Lord Krishna. It is identical to the original Gokula; they are not two different bodies. The above mentioned dhamas are movable, by the omnipotent will of Lord Krishna. When Sri Krishna appears on the face of the earth, He can also make His dhamas appear, without changing their original structure. One should not discriminate between the dhamas on the earth and those in the spiritual sky, thinking those on earth to be material and the original abodes to be spiritual. All of them are spiritual.” (Caitanya Caritamrita Adi 5.16-19)

“When Krishna descends to the universe, this same Vrindavana descends just as an entourage accompanies an important personage. Because when Krishna comes, His land also comes. Vrindavana is not considered to exist in the material world. Therefore, devotees take shelter of the Vrindavana in India, for it is considered to be a replica of the original Vrindavana.” (Caitanya Caritamrita Adi Intro.)

“The spiritual realm of Vrindavan is always spiritual. The goddess of fortune and the gopis are always present there. They are beloved by Krishna, and all of them are equally spiritual like Krishna. In Vrindavana, Krishna is the Supreme Person and is the husband of all gopis and the goddesses of fortune. The trees in Vrindavana are wish-fulfilling trees. The land is made of touchstone, and the water is nectar. Words are musical vibrations, and all movements are dancing. The flute is the Lord’s constant companion. The planet of Goloka Vrindavana is self-luminous like the sun and is full of spiritual bliss. The perfection of life lies in tasting that spiritual existence; therefore, everyone should cultivate its knowledge. In Vrindavana, spiritual cows are always supplying spiritual milk, but not a single moment is wasted there; in other words there is no past, present or future.” (Caitanya Caritamrita Madhya 8.138 purport)

“According to ordinary experience Vrindavana appears like an ordinary village, but in the eyes of elevated devotees, it is as good as the original Vrindavana in the spiritual world.” (Teaching of Lord Caitanya, Chap. 31)
