PURPORT

Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu knew very well that His acceptance of sannyasa was a thunderbolt for His mother.

He therefore called for His mother and the devotees from Mayapura, and by the arrangement of Sri Advaita Acarya, He met them for the last time after His acceptance of sannyasa.

His mother was overwhelmed with grief when she saw that He was clean-shaven.

There was no longer any beautiful hair on His head.

Mother Saci was pacified by all the devotees, and Lord Caitanya Mahaprabhu asked her to cook for Him because He was very hungry, not having taken anything for three days.

His mother immediately agreed, and forgetting everything else, she cooked for Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu during all the days she was at the house of Sri Advaita Prabhu.

Then, after a few days, Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu requested His mother’s permission to go to Jagannatha Puri.

At His mother’s request, He made Jagannatha Puri His headquarters after His acceptance of sannyasa.

Thus everything was adjusted, and with His mother’s permission Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu proceeded toward Jagannatha Puri.
