The Lord stayed at Raghava Pandita’s place for only one day.
The next morning, He went to Kumarahatta, where Srivasa Thakura lived.
PURPORT
The present name of Kumarahatta is Halisahara.
After Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu accepted sannyasa, Srivasa Thakura-due to separation from Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu-left Navadvipa and went to Halisahara to live.
From Kumarahatta, Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu went to Kancanapalli (known as Kancadapada), where Sivananda Sena lived.
After staying two days at Sivananda’s house, the Lord went to the house of Vasudeva Datta.
From there He went to the western side of Navadvipa to the village called Vidyanagara.
From Vidyanagara He went to Kuliya-grama and stayed at Madhava dasa’s house.
He stayed there one week and excused the offenses of Devananda and others.
Due to Kaviraja Gosvami’s mentioning the name of Santipuracarya, some people think that Kuliya is a village near Kancadapada.
Due to this mistaken idea, they invented another place known as New Kuliyara Pata.
Actually such a place does not exist.
Leaving the house of Vasudeva Datta, Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu went to the house of Advaita Acarya.
From there He went to the western side of Navadvipa to Vidyanagara and stayed at the house of Vidya-vacaspati.
These accounts are given in the Caitanya-bhagavata, Caitanya-mangala, Caitanya-candrodaya-nataka and Caitanya-carita-kavya.
Srila Kaviraja Gosvami has not vividly described this entire tour; therefore, on the basis of Caitanya-caritamrta, some unscrupulous people have invented a place called Kuliyara Pata near Kancadapada.
