"I offer my respectful obeisances unto the six GosvÄmÄ«s, namely ÅšrÄ« SanÄtana GosvÄmÄ«, ÅšrÄ« RÅ«pa GosvÄmÄ«, ÅšrÄ« RaghunÄtha Bhaá¹­á¹­a GosvÄmÄ«, ÅšrÄ« RaghunÄtha dÄsa GosvÄmÄ«, ÅšrÄ« JÄ«va GosvÄmÄ« and ÅšrÄ« GopÄla Bhaá¹­á¹­a GosvÄmÄ«, who are very expert in scrutinizingly studying all the revealed scriptures with the aim of establishing eternal religious principles for the benefit of all human beings. Thus they are honored all over the three worlds, and they are worth taking shelter of because they are absorbed in the mood of the gopÄ«s and are engaged in the transcendental loving service of RÄdhÄ and Kṛṣṇa."
