In prarthana Thakura Mahasaya Narottama Dasa expresses the desperation a devotee feels in separation from Lord Gauranga's eternal associates:
Kaha mora svarupa rupa kaha sanatana
Kaha dasa raghunatha patita-pavan
Kaha Mora bhatta-juga kaha kaviraja
Eka-kale kotha gela gora nata-raj
Se-Saba sangira sange je koilo bilas
Se-sanga na paiya kande narottama das
" where are my Swarupa Damodara and Sri Rupa Goswami? Where is Sanatana ? Where is Dasa Raghunatha Bhatta and Gopala Bhatta ? And where is Krishna Dasa Kaviraja ? Where did Gauranga Mahaprabhu, the king of dancers suddenly go ? Being separated from their loving association and the blissful pastimes of Mahaprabhu, Narottama Dasa can only cry"
Indeed , separation from Lord and his Devotees creates such intense feelings in pure devotees like Narottama Dasa Thakura. But fortunately for us by the transcendental arrangements of Lord Chaitanya we can obtain their mercy.
