The sixteenth century Gauḍīya Vaiṣṇava tradition, inspired by Caitanya, envisions that supreme Godhead Kṛṣṇa has three aspects through which he simultaneously encompasses, oversees, and permeates the universe. Although Kṛṣṇa eternally resides in his transcendental realm Goloka-Vṛndāvana alongside associate devotees (bhaktas), Kṛṣṇa as the nondual ontological whole also animates the natural world and resides in the heart of every embodied being. This talk examines how Gauḍīya philosopher Jīva Gosvāmin argues that the cosmological pervasiveness of Kṛṣṇa's divine presence is the foundation of all compassion. In Bhakti Sandarbha, Jīva contends that a practitioner's ability to perceive Kṛṣṇa's presence everywhere is a key mark of spiritual advancement. Jīva suggests that as a bhakta develops devotional love for Kṛṣṇa, so love for all other beings spontaneously develops as well. This talk analyzes how a bhakta's loving devotional mood for Kṛṣṇa is theorized to extend towards others such that every bhakta instinctively treats all embodied beings like a dear son or friend.
