The prominent devotees at Varanasi were the physician Candrasekhara, Tapana Misra and Raghunatha Bhattacarya, Tapana Misra’s son.
When Lord Caitanya came to Varanasi after seeing Vrndavana, for two months He lived at the residence of Candrasekhara Vaidya and accepted prasada at the house of Tapana Misra.
PURPORT
When Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu was in Bengal, Tapana Misra approached Him to discuss spiritual advancement.
Thus he was favored by Lord Caitanya Mahaprabhu and received hari-nama initiation.
After that, by the order of the Lord, Tapana Misra resided in Varanasi, and when Lord Caitanya visited Varanasi He stayed at the home of Tapana Misra.
