Is this world rejectable in terms its temporary pain and pleasure? Or it should be perceived as complete surrender to the ultimate reality where consciousness is playing with its beauty, love and bliss. In this realm we are going to explore an unquestionable school of thought; Bengal Vaishnavism which is popularly known as Gaud?ya Vai??ava. The term 'Gaud?ya' means the thoughts and practices sprang up from Gaudade?a, so it has been named after its origination. Here the word 'gauda' has come as the adjective of the noun-word 'guda' or molasses. That's why the land seems to be named 'Gauda' which actually connotes the land of sweetness or madhurarasa and fortunately it represents Bengal. By revisiting the basic philosophical structure of this school, we will enjoy the deep meaning of delicacy; technically said as 'asv?dana of m?dhurya', or tasting the essence of spiritual love. Broadly, this school of thought has shown that following the path of Gaud?ya Vai??ava, a worshiper can taste the sweetness of spiritual love between R?dha and Kr???a, to attain the path of liberation. Most interestingly their doctrine claims that the supreme and His power or energy both are one in essence just like two sides of a same coin. Though their characteristics seems to be different in their ways of their activities and glories. If the supreme is said to be 'conscious' then very word 'ness' stands as his energy. Altogether the supreme is addressed as consciousness. Technically this concomitant relationship or the eternal relationship between ?akti and ?aktim?na - is worshiped by a worshipper day by day. The big question arises here that how one may say that energy and its locus are different in one? Here comes the grand narration of inexplicable-identity-in-difference which negates the dilemma of duality and glorifies the philosophical values of a realized thought. This article is significant for exploring this phenomenon which adherers the such indiscernibility of both identity and difference.
