When He realized Lord Jagannatha to be Krsna Himself, Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu’s five senses were immediately absorbed in attraction for the five attributes of Lord Krsna.

PURPORT

Sri Krsna’s beauty attracted the eyes of Lord Caitanya Mahaprabhu.

Krsna’s singing and the vibration of His flute attracted the Lord’s ears, the transcendental fragrance of Krsna’s lotus feet attracted His nostrils, Krsna’s transcendental sweetness attracted His tongue, and Krsna’s bodily touch attracted the Lord’s sensation of touch.

Thus each of Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu’s five senses was attracted by one of the five attributes of Lord Krsna.
