"As Srila Gurudev was pointing out the other day: it is the ideal time, spiritually speaking, to start something new.... Krishna has so many jyotishis (astrologers), other than Him knowing everything..., so if He decides that this is the particular day that He will go to Vrindavan, that He will start from Dwaraka for Vrindavan, then we can understand how special is that day."
And:
"The devotees wisely invest all their serving capital at the lotus feet of Mahaprabhu wherein lies the entrance to Vrindavan.... This is one of the open secrets of the Krishna consciousness movement, that the entrance way to Vrindavan is located in Nabadwip and at the lotus feet of Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu."
