PURPORT
Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu is the mercy incarnation of the Supreme Personality of Godhead.
He is addressed by Srila Rupa Gosvami as maha-vadanyavatara, or the most magnanimous incarnation.
Srila Rupa Gosvami also says, karunayavatirnah kalau: it is only by His mercy that He has descended in this Age of Kali.
Here this is exemplified.
Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu did not like to see Mayavadi sannyasis because He thought of them as offenders to the lotus feet of Krsna, but here He excuses them (tan-sabara ksami’ aparadha).
This is an example in preaching.
Apani acari’ bhakti sikhaimu sabare.
Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu teaches us that those whom preachers meet are almost all offenders who are opposed to Krsna consciousness, but it is a preacher’s duty to convince them of the Krsna consciousness movement and then induce them to chant the Hare Krsna maha-mantra.
Our propagation of the sankirtana movement is continuing, despite many opponents, and people are taking up this chanting process even in remote parts of the world like Africa.
By inducing the offenders to chant the Hare Krsna mantra, Lord Caitanya Mahaprabhu exemplified the success of the Krsna consciousness movement.
We should follow very respectfully in the footsteps of Lord Caitanya, and there is no doubt that we shall be successful in our attempts.
