Moreover, he achieves ecstatic love of Krsna.
PURPORT
The word vivarta means accepting something to be the opposite of what it appears.
Here, Jagadananda Pandita appeared very angry, but this anger was a manifestation of his great love for Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu.
Prema-vivarta is also the name of a book written by Jagadananda Pandita.
Therefore the author of Caitanya-caritamrta, Krsnadasa Kaviraja Gosvami, uses the words prema-vivarta to refer to one who reads the book or hears about Jagadananda Pandita’s relationships with Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu.
In either case, such a person very soon achieves love of Krsna.
