"All glory, all glory to the lotus feet of Lord Nityānanda, by whose mercy I have attained Śrī Rādhā-Govinda!
"I am more sinful than Jagāi and Mādhāi and even lower than the worms in the stool.
"Anyone who hears my name loses the results of his pious activities. Anyone who utters my name becomes sinful.
"Who in this world but Nityānanda could show His mercy to such an abominable person as me?
"Because He is intoxicated by ecstatic love and is an incarnation of mercy, He does not distinguish between the good and the bad.
"He delivers all those who fall down before Him. Therefore He has delivered such a sinful and fallen person as me.
"The glories of Lord Nityānanda's transcendental attributes are unfathomable. Even Lord Śeṣa, with His thousands of mouths, cannot find their limit."
(From Caitanya-caritāmṛta, Ādi-līlā, Fifth Chapter)
