Praying at the lotus feet of Sri Rupa and Sri Raghunatha, always desiring their mercy, I, Krsnadasa, narrate Sri Caitanya-caritamrta, following in their footsteps.
Thus end the Bhaktivedanta purports to Sri Caitanya-caritamrta, Antya-lila, Thirteenth Chapter, describing Jagadananda Pandita’s visit to Vrndavana, the Lord’s hearing the song of the deva-dasi, and Raghunatha Bhatta Gosvami’s achieving love of Krsna.
Lord Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu’s Feelings of Separation from Krsna Srila Bhaktivinoda Thakura gives the following summary of the Fourteenth Chapter of Antya-lila.
Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu’s feelings of separation from Krsna resulted in highly elevated transcendental madness.
When He was standing near the Garuda-stambha and praying to Lord Jagannatha, a woman from Orissa put her foot on the Lord’s shoulder in her great eagerness to see Lord Jagannatha.
Govinda chastised her for this, but Caitanya Mahaprabhu praised her eagerness.
When Caitanya Mahaprabhu went to the temple of Lord Jagannatha, He was absorbed in ecstatic love and saw only Krsna.
As soon as He perceived this woman, however, His external consciousness immediately returned, and He saw Jagannatha, Baladeva and Subhadra.
Caitanya Mahaprabhu also saw Krsna in a dream, and He was overwhelmed with ecstatic love.
When He could no longer see Krsna, Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu compared Himself to a yogi and described how that yogi was seeing Vrndavana.
Sometimes all the transcendental ecstatic symptoms were manifest in Him.
One night, Govinda and Svarupa Damodara noticed that although the three doors to the Lord’s room were closed and locked, the Lord was not present inside.
Seeing this, Svarupa Damodara and the other devotees went outside and saw the Lord lying unconscious by the gate known as Simha-dvara.
His body had become unusually long, and the joints of His bones were loose.
The devotees gradually brought Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu back to His senses by chanting the Hare Krsna mantra, and then they took Him back to His residence.
Once Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu mistook Cataka-parvata for Govardhana-parvata.
As He ran toward it, He became stunned, and then the eight ecstatic transformations appeared in His body due to great love for Krsna.
At that time all the devotees chanted the Hare Krsna mantra to pacify Him.
