Question: More than Gauranga, I love Nityananda (Guru Maharaj said: Nitaiiiii NItaiiiii!). I always like to be Nityananda conscious. So will it be considered as Krsna conscious?

Jayapataka Swami: See, Lord Nitai always carries out the order of Lord Caitanya and He is said to be the mercy avatar. He gives out mercy very freely, carrying out the order of Lord Caitanya Mahaprabhu. So Srila Prabhupada said, that depending on whether you have attachment for Lord Caitanya or Lord Nityananda or Advaita, that may influence your relationship with Krsna. But it is alright to have relationship with Nitai. He is also the expansion of Krsna, Caitanya. Sri Krsna Caitanya, Radha Krsna nahi anya, Balaram hoilo Nitai. So one may have Balarama consciousness or Nityananda consciousness, or Gauranga consciousness, that is alright! Haribol!
