PURPORT
Sri Nityananda Prabhu is the immediate expansion of Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu as His brother.
He is the personified spiritual bliss of sac-cid-ananda-vigraha.
His body is transcendental and full of ecstasy in devotional service.
Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu is therefore called bhakta-rupa (the form of a devotee), and Sri Nityananda Prabhu is called bhakta-svarupa (the expansion of a devotee).
Sri Advaita Prabhu, the incarnation of a devotee, is visnu-tattva and belongs to the same category.
There are also different types of bhaktas, or devotees, on the platforms of neutrality, servitude, friendship, parenthood and conjugal love.
Devotees like Sri Damodara, Sri Gadadhara and Sri Ramananda are different energies.
This confirms the Vedic sutra parasya saktir vividhaiva sruyate.
All these bhakta subjects taken together constitute Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu, who is Krsna Himself.
