Caitanya Bhagavata Verse 1.1.4

: Chapter 1 - Summary of Lord Gaura’s Pastimes

Bengali text, Devanagari and Unicode transliteration of verse 1.1.4:

স জযতি বিশুদ্ধ-বিক্রমঃ কনকাভঃ কমলাযতেক্ষণঃ বর-জানু-বিলম্বি-ষড্-ভুজো বহুধা ভক্তি-রসাভিনর্তকঃ ॥ ৪ ॥

स जयति विशुद्ध-विक्रमः कनकाभः कमलायतेक्षणः वर-जानु-विलम्बि-षड्-भुजो बहुधा भक्ति-रसाभिनर्तकः ॥ ४ ॥

sa jayati viśuddha-vikramaḥ kanakābhaḥ kamalāyatekṣaṇaḥ vara-jānu-vilambi-ṣaḍ-bhujo bahudhā bhakti-rasābhinartakaḥ || 4 ||

sa jayati visuddha-vikramah kanakabhah kamalayateksanah vara-janu-vilambi-sad-bhujo bahudha bhakti-rasabhinartakah (4) 

English translation:

(4) All glories to Śrī Gaurasundara, whose powerful activities are supremely pure, whose bodily complexion is like molten gold, whose eyes are like lotus petals, whose six beautiful arms extend to His knees, and whose heart is inundated by loving devotional sentiments as He enjoys dancing in various ways during kīrtana.

Commentary: Gauḍīya-bhāṣya by Śrīla Bhaktisiddhānta Sarasvatī Ṭhākura:

The phrase bahudhā bhakti-rasābhinartakaḥ is explained as follows: When the five direct rasas and seven indirect rasas interact with one another it is called bhakti-rasa. The object of attachment for the devotees situated in the five direct rasas, Śrī Gaurasundara, danced along with those who had taken shelter of Him.

this is a beautiful meditation on Sri Sad Bhuja given by Srila Vrindavana das Thakura, and Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Prabhupadas purport is beautiful ,,Srila Jagannath das Babaji also used to worship Sad Bhuja, Lord Caitanya showed His Sad Bhuja form to Srila Sarvabhauma Bhattacarya and few exceptional fortunate souls..in ISKCON Hamburg they worship Lord Caitanyas Sad Bhuja form ,the only temple in ISKCON I have seen Sadbhuja
