Chaitanya Mahaprabhu - more merciful than Radha-Krsna
"The whole mercy of Krishna, and the whole mercy of Radhika, have come in Caitanya Mahaprabhu. So He is more merciful than Radha and Krishna also. Those who are siddha, only they can enter in Radha-Krishna [lila]. But those who are offensive, having so many lust, unwanted things in their heart, they cannot realize Radha and Krishna's mercy, never. But even if offensive like Jagai-Madhai, so many, having so much lust, oh, they are sinking in the ocean of sense gratification, even they will come to Navadvipa dharma, and they will chant 'Gaura Nitai! Gaura Nityananda Prabhu!' very easily. All kinds of five elements, offense, ignorance, suffering, sorrows, all will go very quickly.
Though Krishna is same like Caitanya Mahaprabhu Sacinandana Gaurahari, but here He has taken the beauty and intrinsic mood and mercy of Radhika. So He's more merciful than Krishna and Radhika. In Krishna lila pastime, we see that He killed so many demons. In their, that life they could not realize the mercy of Krishna. After death they realized something, when they were killed and their soul was liberated, then they realized but not in this [while they were alive].
But Mahaprabhu, by His mercy He liberated Jagai, Madhai and so many. In that very life they realized the mercy of Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu. Krishna never gave anyone Braja prema, killing or anyhow To general person He never gave Braja prema, kanta-prema, sakha-prema, vatsalya-prema to them. Only He gave some position and some thing. But Caitanya Mahaprabhu and Nityananda Prabhu, especially Mahaprabhu, what He did? A miracle. He was going to forest on the way to Vrindavana and the animals, birds, trees, creepers, to whom Caitanya Mahaprabhu looked from a very big distance, from far away, even they received that love and affection and they began to dance and they began rolling down on the earth 'Krishna! Krishna!'
Because really with the mood that 'We will go to this world and give prema', the motive was, mood was like so. That is why They are giving. Krishna and Radha and Baladeva at that time no mood [to give prema]. What [mood]? Only to taste Braja-prema. So He could not give Braja prema to others, those who were sadhaka. But in this Mahaprabhu Caitanya pastimes we see that to whom He looked, He wanted to give highest love and affection. So He gave so many, so many, not only to one or two. Because He has come only for this mood, to give, His object was to give love and affection."
