The following is an Evening Darśana Lecture given by His Holiness Jayapatākā Swami Mahārāja on May 4, 1982 – in Boston, USA.

Radhe. It Sadeena. It Sadeena. Sadeena, Sadeena.

Śrī Kṛṣṇa. Hare Kṛṣṇa. Hare Kṛṣṇa Kṛṣṇa Hare Hare. Hare Rāma. Hare Rāma. Ramadan. Yatri pahan pande. Śrī guru. Namshi chaitan namastam rupamuri radhe angiri barama yashati. Śrī guru. Very nice to be back again to place where Śrīla Prabhupāda first put his lotus with dust in the north american hemisphere. I had the great fortune of visiting Boston in 1969, which was probably returning from India via London. I am sure you all know about that from the Elon musk. Otherwise, of course, everyone in Boston has got the fame of being great intellectuals, and I feel very incompetent for discussing with all the intellectuals. Been living in an indian village for the past 1012 years practically. But I could tell you something about village life, maybe even though I couldn’t touch on intellectual aspects at this time, unless I get some special blessings from the Taigur Shiva Prabhupāda.

Although I did happen to spend some time here during college days, feels very short. The point I was thinking about affected me today a little bit. Little bit of a sad remembrance was the time when Caitanya Mahāprabhu had taken sannyas. Of course, you know that, you may know that the real purpose of human life is to know who we are, to know. Kṛṣṇa for the supreme person, same personality of Godhead, the absolute truth, that is the purpose of human life, because only the human beings have the necessary intellect called Buddhi in Sanskrit, to endeavor to understand these higher goals of life. But there are various processes given down from age to age in order to realize these goals of life, to solve the new problems of life.

And in every age, the Lord himself comes down to give the fallen humanity the chance by giving a process which they can easily practice in that particular day and age. So, of course, Kṛṣṇa came thousands of years ago at the end of the Dvarapara Yuga and spoke the Bhagavad Gītā. And 500 years ago, just 500 years ago, not very long at all, our Caitanya Mahāprabhu has come. Kṛṣṇa has come again, but in a form shown it with great mystery. He’s come as his own devotee in that particular mood, so that he can fulfill the purpose of giving the process for fulfilling human life in this particular age or era. So Vocitani, of course, spent the first 24 years of his life in Māyā Konavaji Daevdev, Bengal. But then he decided that he should leave Bengal and preach around Indiegogo to Vrindavan.

And to do so, he decided he would accept the sannyas order of light, become a mendicant, a monk, a sannyāsī. And so he accepted sanyas because people were not, as he was, a householder, he was a married man in his external appearance. So when he would perform extraordinary activities which no ordinary person could do, and the ordinary people started to criticize him because they couldn’t understand what was going on, thought it was better to be a sannyāsī or an ordained monk, so that the ordinary people of those of that period would respect him, at least on that basis. Otherwise they were committing offenses to not understanding his position. So when poor Caitanya began Tuksongyas, he was going to go to Vrindavan, he was going to preach, but then, as it leave his mother, he agreed to go to Jagannath Purī, which was nearby.

He was spending some time at the house of Advaita, the leader of the Brāhmaṇa priestly class, and not too far from Māyāpur, that’s in Shantipurtain, we are being offered some very important opportunities for worshiping at the house of Advaita, the place where Advaita Nityānanda and Lord Caitanya sat together and took prashada. That place is going to be given to Iskam on an agreement so that we can build a temple there and worship at that place. So this is a very great breakthrough where I have to still finalize the exact details, because this is being worshipped by the direct descendants of Advaita Goswami, who are known as caste Brahmanas, normally a little bit stiff in their outlook, but apparently in their own family.

Two generations ago, there was a great preacher, Vijay Kṛṣṇa Goswani, the 11th generation after Advaita, and he had predicted to his followers that very soon the whole world will become midrangamoin. These drops of Lord Caitanya’s Sankirtan party will be playing all over the world. Because people were saying that, well, Lord Caitanya predicted that his moon would go over the whole world, but we don’t see that it’s going here outside of India, so why should we believe that we’re. Chaitanya’s movement will go all over the world? And he also said, no, it will go all over the world. The whole world will be the drunken one. Someone will come. He predicted he had some mystic power or something also. Then, of course, Paktino Thakur, our own spiritual great grandfather. He predicted that someone would come to spread Loichita mes movement over the whole world.

And what Caitanya himself predicted, that my movement will be spread over the whole world in every town and village, exact words, and every town delivers throughout the whole world. My name will be sun. So this congregational chanting is the process that what she tends to is brought, that simply by changing, one can elevate his consciousness to the transcendental realm. So Lord Shaytanimatul, when he had taken Sannyas, he was there to break his house. Then he told everyone that, I know, I am going to leave now, I am going to go to Jagannath Purī. For those who don’t know, Lord Jagannath is there on the right side on the altar of three deities with a very big white eyes and a big smiling face, and a brother and sister next to him.

So the temple india which is dedicated, so that Lord is known as Jagannath Purī, and that’s where Lord Caitanya was headed. So everyone told him, don’t go, it’s very dangerous. We’re living in the kingdom which is run by Muhammadans, and you’re going to the kingdom which is still run by Raja Pati, the king of the Orissa, who is Hindu. But these two kings are always fighting with each other, because the muhammadan king is trying to defeat that last stronghold of vedic culture. So it’s very dangerous. Lord Caitanya says, so many people are going, why shouldn’t I go? And anyway, he was a sannyāsī, so why did he care? And he was Kṛṣṇa. So they admitted that, well, whatever you want to do, of course, who can stand in your way? If you want to go, then of course there’s nothing we can do.

Then Lord Caitanya preached to them that, I am going and I will be coming back very soon. In my preaching, you should all stay in your homes, stay in your villages and chant Hare Kṛṣṇa, Kṛṣṇa, Hare, Hare HARris congregationally. And you are already, because of your chanting, because of your understanding the purpose of life, you’re already liberated souls, so you don’t have to do any extraneous materialistic activity for your happiness. You simply chant the holy name of Kṛṣṇa, engage in this process of BhaktI Yoga, and all good fortune will come to you. Actually, the scene is exactly a parallel to when Kṛṣṇa was leaving Vrindavan going to Mathurā. You have probably seen the picture, when Kṛṣṇa was leaving Vrindavana going to Matura.

At that time, all of the residents of Vrindavan, especially the Gopīs, the Kalhar girls, they all came out and they held on Kṛṣṇa’s chariot and they said, please don’t. But Kṛṣṇa was determined that he had to go and so he left. And they were all just standing with broken hearts and fainting and falling down and crying. So when Lord Caitanya left, everyone was hoping and praying that he would simply stay and requesting. But early in the morning, he left. And as they were all standing, watching him go, their hearts were breaking in separation and they were falling down and crying and they were feeling so much transcendental emotion. The Lord Shaitanya, he only went with a few people. He went with Vichananda, with Kadara, Mukunda and Govinda and Jagadananda and Ramand purists.

So all the renowned people were there with Voicheanya Mahaprabhar, but they’re all heading towards Jagannath Purī. So they walked and walked, and they came to a village, I believe it’s called Arabic, there. There was a very nice. Actually, when they were walking, the Lord said, all right, which of you has brought with you any material possessions? Because there were so many thieves and so many on the road. He was testing them, because if they had any valuable possessions, then there’s no doubt that someone trying to steal it from them and they’re all supposed to be renounced. So he tested them. All right, which of you has got any valuables that you’re bringing with you? Nicky. Nuts. I didn’t bring it.

(Side B of the Cassette)

You have pleased me very much. He said, actually, we don’t need anything. Everyone already has it written when he is going to eat and when he is not going to eat. Even if you are the richest man, big prince, with so much opulence, plenty of food around, but you may get such anxiety to have a fight with someone. I am not eating, forget it. That meal you want, maybe sitting there with your head in your hands, and there’s some anxiety, I won’t turn up. Even you have it. It’s written that day, you own it, or you may have so much, a big learned scholar, a lot of money, everything is there, but you get a fever. So when you have a fever, who’s thinking about eating? You have no appetite, you’re sick.

So Lord Jaytanya was explaining to them, while they were walking over the rivers, on the road to the jungles, heading down, dragging on pudding, and we will just depend upon Kṛṣṇa. If we’re supposed to eat, we will eat. If we’re not supposed to eat, we won’t eat. Even if a person is the poorest man, he gets his food. Similarly, the richest person, sometimes he also has to go hungry. So if we’re supposed to eat, this is saying in Bengali, Kṛṣṇa rake mariki Kṛṣṇa mare rake. If Kṛṣṇa protects, who will harm? And if Kṛṣṇa wants to harm, who will protect? Simple logic.

So in a more expanded way, Lord Caitanya was explaining to them, and it just so happened that they came to this one village, and there a great devotee called Ananta funded, he requested, voce, please come and let us serve the sadhus, the great saintly people, please come and take your meal at my house so everyone could understand it’s Kṛṣṇa’s arrangement. Actually, india, they have a system. It’s called Atiti Seva. Atiti means the guest who wasn’t. It just kind of spontaneously arrives. When we traveled around India, I was traveling for four months several years ago, and every day we just go into a town. We would not make any advance arrangement. We would just pull into the town about two to three in the afternoon.

And every time we would always find someone, come forward and offer us a place to stay, offer us food, and they would say, this is otiti seba. This is serving the unknown guests. They say, otiti na’AI, this is how God tests the person. If he’s really hospitable, if he’s really charitable, then he will take care of the guests, just as if Mariah himself has come. And still today, that system is very prevalent. Even people are nothing wealthy. Some may not have much, but whatever they have, they will offer it to their means. Many houses, the master bedroom, the person will give his master bedroom, clean it all up, give him his own bedroom, and he will sleep at the neighbor’s house or something. So that system called the titi seva, is even still prevalent today.

So Ananta was saying that, well, Naraya comes to my house, waititi, I have to serve him. Because the Vedas and the Guruda purāṇa, many places it says that one should respect a guest like this as being Nārāyaṇa. But he didn’t know that the original Nārāyaṇa himself had come, that Shaitan Mahabhu himself was Nalaya. Then, of course, he couldn’t understand how fortunate he was. He was thinking in a general way that here some saintly person is coming and shaking him as an honored guest. And in this way I will please the supreme personality of God. He didn’t realize that the supreme Lord himself was coming in his house. So, of course, nowadays even you pick up a hitchhiker, you don’t know whether you’re going to get shot or knifed in America.

So I don’t think that they would let people come and stay in their homes due to so many fears and anxieties. But this was especially, of course, meant for the saintly people, for the traveling monks, traveling preachers, that they would invite them into the house. If there was ever a traveling preacher who was found out to break regular principles, to not be celibate, to do some other type of illegal activity, then people would not hesitate to take the law into their own hands and do whatever necessary to incapacitate that person, immobilize them for a while. But anyone who was a real sadhu, who was a real devotee, a real yogī, traveling around, people would treat with great respect, still do, even though they don’t have in many places as much.

Well, obviously, it’s a very poor country today still that we find more in the poorer country regions than we do. If you go into the big cities like Alberta, Baba, you won’t find them. But when you go outside, into the small towns, into the villages, there you find these habits still there. So where is the question that by getting more money, the people become more impersonal, they become more inhumane, less compassionate and more selfish? Especially, we see when they’re offered money, they come and work in the factories, they lose all good quality. You go into any industrial city india, it’s the worst place. All the kids just run around in the streets, the whole place is covered with cold smoke and coal ashes. And their character just becomes ruined. Whatever money they make in the factory, they use it for drinking and for gambling.

You go to the rural agricultural region or to the other towns that are not dependent upon industry. There you find the people are very hospitable, very nice. Children seem to be less involved in different kind of gross, materialistic gambling and drinking activities. So the idea of rapid industrialization, rapid improvement, rapid progress also brings with it rapid degradation. If the proper spiritual training is not there, if the proper spiritual environment is not there, then they become conditioned by this intense lust to just increase more and more whatever I have given. More and more. So, as we have seen 500 years ago, Lord Caitanya visited the house of Anantha Pandit. Even today, people receive their gifts. And when they receive, they offer you seed. They offer it. Sometimes the lamb are to eat.

And they also offer some drinks, water, milk, natural, or some lemon called lemon, sherbat, lemonade. And they treat one with. In one place they said, you please take some water. And then with the water, they came out with a whole plate of sandeshwas full of different sweet meat. So then we said, why? He just said, water. We just said water was enough. They said, no, but what are you going to take the water with? You can’t just take the water alone. Have something with it. So when they say water, at least they will give you a plate of sugar, just to take a little bit of sugar if you. Poorest house. So, Kṛṣṇa, consciousness is meant to lead people to lead more natural way of life, which automatically brings out the better aspects of human life.

The more unnatural our life becomes, the more inhumane, callous, impersonal we become. And the result is not good. The result is a gradual decay of the real fiber, the real ability to understand human intelligence. And people just become very much absorbed, very base things. So Lord Jay telling him in this way, he was proceeding to Jagannath Purī, and I was thinking of the state and affairs of the residents of Navarb. They were just a complete shock. They were thinking that he was with us all this time. We couldn’t recognize how much we depended on his presence. Now that he’s gone, now we’re only thinking how we should have taken better advantage of the opportunity that was given. Actually, Lord Caitanya, he was the greatest intellectual, just as Kṛṣṇa.

He had pastimes when he would play with coward boys and dance by the side of the jamuna. So Lord Caitanya in his early life, his pastime was he was a Ramana, while Lord king played as if he was a comrade. So Lord Caitanya played as a scholar. And at the age of eleven, he became the greatest intellectual in all, Navigator, which was the seat of learning in the whole of India. At that time, at the age of eleven, hundreds and hundreds of students were flocking to him. And although he didn’t, whatever he studied, he just immediately memorized it. But even things he didn’t study, he had an unusual way of seeming to know everything. He would just quote various vedic references that people didn’t even know at any time.

He could never recollect when he ever studied those, but somehow he knew them just as good as the author himself. Of course, he was the authorization. And it was amazing because or Chetanya, he would sit by the side of the Ganges for 6 hours a day, would give his classes, and he would teach basically sanskrit grammar, sanskrit poetry, mainly the grammar. So sometimes people were. There was one mukunda. Now, of course, we just thought Mukunda went to him with juggernaut for the night for about 20 years, 20, about 15 years later. But at that time, Lord Chaitanya was not manifesting his Kṛṣṇa conscious aspect. He was simply manifesting his intellectual aspects. And so Mukunda was also one of the students in that seed of learning, much like Boston, at least one time, not now, I think it’s still the seed of learning.

So Navaj was the seed of learning then. So Mukunda, he was trying to become expert in sanskrit poetry, which he considered to be the ultimate in vedic and sanskrit learning. The Lord Caitanya, he saw Mukunda. He was accompanied with about a couple hundred of his students. And he called Mukunda. Hey, Mukunda, where are you going? Why are you not waiting? And this was the one thing no one wanted to be caught by goce, by Nimay Pandit was his name on the street, because he had a way of asking questions which no one could answer. Then he would answer the question, and then in this way, he would prove his expertness in logic and in Sanskrit. So Mukunde was saying that, I know he’s going to try to get me to be his student also. It was a.

Anyone could be a 50 year old person. If you know more than him, then he has to surrender unto you immediately. He has to accept. All right, you know, you have excelled me. Therefore, now I am your student. Even if the person is twelve years old, if he knows more than the older person, he would immediately and accept if and every angle he couldn’t. So Mukunda was thinking, well, he knows grammar, he doesn’t know Sanskrit. So I am going to teach him a lesson. He’s getting too proud. So he went over and he said, listen, why are you not coming? You’re not coming to the classes anyway. Well, you only know grammar. You don’t know the higher Sanskrit teachings, the higher poetic allegories. And they call decorations similes, right?

You don’t know all these things about the sanskrit poetry, so why should I go to you? I want to learn this higher field. I am not interested in just the basic grammar. Lord Caitanya used to speak in a very humble, nice way. And he said, well, of course we are studying grammar, but to some extent we may know something in the poetic field. You may just compose some poetry to analyze it. And so Mukunda composed some poetry. Lord Shaytani took it apart into little pieces, pointed out all the defects, recomposed it perfectly, and composed another ten verses on the same line, which Mukunda couldn’t find any defect in, and then asked Mukunda a question about it, which he couldn’t answer. Then Mukunda was completely bewildered and said, this person has got unlimited genius, how to like to be with him.

But only thing is, he’s so proud. If he was only a pure devotee. So Lord Chaitan said, why don’t you think about it and come back tomorrow? And like this, Lord Chaitanya would go at that time, and he would be telling, he’d see some big professor who had taught him before. He’d see him on the street, say, oh, Professor Bharat Namaskar, please accept my respects. How are you? I just wanted to ask you one question. Then he would ask this other question. The person would never be able to answer. Then Lord Caitanya would answer, is this correct? In this way? Finally, all of the professors that were there, they all finally accepted that Lord Caitanya is the number one intellectual, number one scholar in Navarre. So Lord Caitanya, he attracted everyone. He was so beautiful, lowered his eyes. He was about.

By this time he was already getting to be about 13, you see. But he was about 7ft tall when he was full grown. At that period, I don’t know exactly what his exact height was, but I know it was 7ft tall when he was about 16, so 14, I don’t know if anyone’s guessing. I didn’t see it written now. And he was quite tall. His arms would go down to his knees. He had a very peculiar. Not peculiar, but a very beautiful appearance in every respect. People would see him and they would think that this is. He’s not at all a human being. He’s some kind of an inter terrestrial being that has come, extraterrestrial being, rather, that has come here from the heavenly planet or something. He’s got some influence about him. Special three lines in his neck.

His whole structure was so superb that no one had ever seen anyone like that. So when Lord Caitany would go around the town with his followers and students, after they would do their studies and people would invite him, please come. The shopkeeper with the quad shop would invite him in. Lord Chaitani, give him a nice seat, give him as a guest, give him some water to drink and say, what would you like? Lord Cheytani said, well, it’s been about ten days since my last visit. Do you have a new set of cloth? Oh, yes, he brought out the best cloth. Lor Chaitanya would take a new set this way. He was always dressed in the finance cloth.

And he’d go flower man without, just like when Kṛṣṇa used to go around the Torah and see the flower man, see the mahdir, see this one, see that one? Lord Chicken would go with his students and people would invite him in. And sometimes they would have different relationships. The cowherders, the milkmen, they invited him in. And then he said, they offered him a seed and he said, well, what do you have for me today? Don’t you have any milk? No yogurt, no cheese. Then they brought out so many different types of yogurt, cheese, milk, everything. And so then he took some to take back to mother Satchi and then gave to students. Then he’d go home and then he’d come and take it. First he’d take his bath in the gantties. He’d go home, he’d worship Vishnu, his Kṛṣṇa deity.

He worshiped Vishnu in the Muddav Kṛṣṇa. And then he would sit down and he would be given his meal later. Of course, around that time, he was married to Lakshmi Priya. Some other satshi would stand and watch Bo chai Kanya be served by his young wife. She was very happy to see her son and daughter in law. Then Lord Caitana, he would now stay home. He would go back out, visit different friends. Sometimes the older vaishnavs, like Śrīvast, Advaita, Gosai at that time. Advaita, of course, he was a little distant, but Śrīvastava, one time quat voice, why you are just doing all this pedantics, all these scholastic. Why are you not simply engaging in pure devotional service to Kṛṣṇa? What is the use of wasting your life simply academic pursuits? If you don’t ultimately realize who you are, you don’t realize who is Kṛṣṇa.

If you don’t try to help the other people who are suffering birth, death, old age, disease in this world by giving their spiritual knowledge, by giving them love for Kṛṣṇa, what is the use of all this education? It is simply decoration of a dead body. So Lord Chaitanya said, will you bless me? You are great, Vaishnav. By your blessings, I can achieve pure devotional service. I always hank pain, but I haven’t yet found my spiritual master. I am waiting to find my spiritual master and buy your blessings. I will get pure devotional service very soon. Just I am enjoying these scholastic pursuits now. After a short time, I will definitely be engaging in my devotional activities. I am not yet old enough. Something like that. He would give some rebuttal. Until then, Shiva asked a blessing. Yes, you should become a pure devotee of Kṛṣṇa.

This Lord Caitanya, he was expert attracting various blessings from the devotees, and he was enjoying like this, going around with his devotees. So in this way, every day, 1015 new students would come and touch his feet and accept him as their master. And he had literally thousands of students. They would sit by the side of the ganges and he’d just be just like they described it, similarly to the moon surrounded by stars. Or like Brihaspati, the guru of the demigods, surrounded by all the demigods who he’s teaching. Or like cupid, surrounded by so many heartstruck persons. But Vrindavan Nas Thakur says none of these examples are good enough because the moon has got some. Some blemishes. Even a full moon has got some moon craters or whatever you call it, moon spots. But Lord Shitali had no blemish and the moon waned.

But Lord Caitanya, he’s always full. Rehas partly favors the demigods, the Lord Caitanya, he’s equal to the demigods and the demons. And when cupid strikes someone in the heart, it causes some anxiety, some pain. But when you’re struck by Lord Caitanya’s glance, it satisfies you completely. So the only example was Kṛṣṇa surrounded by the gopīs on the bank of the Jeruna Devsi. Only proper analogy to give a little idea what it was like when Lord Caitanya would be there and be discussing. So sometimes Lord Caitanya he would challenge, let anyone put forward their argument. So people, different scholars, they wanted to go and see if they could defeat the wife, and they come and put forward their argument. He would prove the opposite argument, defeat their argument, prove the opposite. He said, now you’re satisfied, let admit defeat.

Then he defeated his own argument and then reproved their original argument. He said, anyone, I challenge anyone, no matter what argument they give, I will disprove it, and then again I will be proven and there are no commerce. A few tried and they all gave up. So this was the type of activity. Of course, later, Chetan, he was enjoying that whole intellectual exercise. That was his frolicking with the cows that he was doing, that was his fun, taking all the students and then just completely absorbing in that particular mellow of intellectual and scholastic pursuit. But finally, of course, he just got into preaching the holy name, which is the real purpose that he came for. After he finished his childhood pastimes, when he was 14, he started to preach the holy name.

And as a result, of course, today, all over the world, we’re chanting Hare Kṛṣṇa, hare, hare Rāma hare. So we would do well also to take the advice of those older vaishnavas. What are we doing with our lives? What’s the purpose of life that we should be heading towards the absolute purpose of life, and that’s simply loitering around the material world, becoming more and more entangled in this material world. So maybe there’s some questions of specific things that the voters would like to hear. We could discuss those.

Yes, he was instructing him to worship Kṛṣṇa. He said to go to Vrindava and worship Kṛṣṇa. So that was back in the Satay. So I was wondering, like, we’re worshipping Kṛṣṇa as he appeared, and so we’re remembering those pastimes, and so many temples have been constructed. So back then, how is that left over from the last line?

It’s not that Ayodhya, for Ramachandra was only sacred after Rāma came. Ayodhya is an Ityadam, it’s eternal dhamma. Vrindavan is an eternal dham. Māyāpur is eternal Dhamma in the Satya Yuga. When Roshingadeva came, he also visited my emperor and Dwarba Yuga. Balaram visited my emperor like that. I don’t know all the histories, Vrindavan, because I am a more connected with Māyā for. But I know that all of the different avatars, they have various pastimes through the ages in Vrindavan, because that’s their eternal home. It’s just like when the ambassador, like our secretary of state here, was running back and forth all over the world. But whenever he goes somewhere, he’d always drop into it. Embassy. It was like, that’s his home, away from. That’s their property. So away from the spiritual sky.

In the material world, the lord has got his own places, and those places are not under the control of the same laws that govern the rest of the. Superficially, it may appear to be so, but the lord, he knows that which is his holy dha, just like Chaganat Purī Māyā, pur tabadvid dam. Each of them has a side described in the scripture, and that is the area of that holy Dao. I have four, I believe is a crochet, 16 crochet, 32 miles wide. Rhondavanus, 84 miles wide. Look at each of them. Has their diameter and they have eternal pastimes. Just like Lord Brahma after he insulted Kṛṣṇa by stealing his cows. And then he was humbled and he begged forgiveness from Kṛṣṇa. He was regretting that. I am so fallen, I committed such an offense.

What’s the use of being the creator of this universe when I get so proud that I offend the supreme lord? He said, just practically, we just damn this Brahman ship. What is the use of it? When we get so proud, we make so much mistakes, we commit offenses I will never be able to achieve. Look at these residents of Vrindavan. They’re playing with Kṛṣṇa. They’re able to enjoy just on an equal level. And then I am trying to surpass and I end up just going to the lowest level. So then he was advised and then Kali Yuga. In this age, the lord comes as Chetanya Mahabrabhu, and he gives out unlimited mercy. So he decided that I am going to go to Nabad dweeb and do the pasia. I am going to worship Lord Caitanya until I get his darshan and then I can get his mercy.

So he was worshipping and worshipping there in, at near the birthplace of Lord Caitanya, which would be the birthplace in avadvit. That’s why it’s known as Antaduit, because that’s the place where Lord Brahma sat. Did his word, did his tapasya, holy God. Finally, Lord Chaitanya appeared. There was Nitinanda with all the devotees and.
