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, Nineteenth Chapter, describing the Lord’s devotion to His mother, His mad speeches in separation from Krsna, His rubbing His face against the walls, and His dancing in the Jagannatha-vallabha garden.

The Siksastaka Prayers The following summary study of the Twentieth Chapter is given by Srila Bhaktivinoda Thakura in his Amrta-pravaha-bhasya.

Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu passed His nights tasting the meaning of Siksastaka in the company of Svarupa Damodara Gosvami and Ramananda Raya.

Sometimes He recited verses from Jayadeva Gosvami’s Gita-govinda, from Srimad-Bhagavatam, from Sri Ramananda Raya’s jagannatha-vallabha-nataka or from Sri Bilvamangala Thakura’s Krsna-karnamrta.

In this way, He became absorbed in ecstatic emotions.

For the twelve years Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu lived at Jagannatha Puri, He relished the taste of reciting such transcendental verses.

The Lord was present in this mortal world for forty-eight years altogether.

After hinting about the Lord’s disappearance, the author of Caitanya-caritamrta gives a short description of the entire Antya-lila and then ends his book.
