PURPORT
When Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu formerly went to South India, a brahmana named Kala Krsnadasa went with Him.
It was Kala Krsnadasa who fell victim to a woman, and Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu had to take the trouble to free him from the clutches of the gypsies.
Therefore the Lord here says that He wants a new man who is peaceful in mind.
One whose mind is not peaceful is agitated by certain drives, especially sex desire, even though he be in the company of Caitanya Mahaprabhu.
Such a man will become a victim of women and will fall down even in the company of the Supreme Personality of Godhead.
Maya is so strong that unless one is determined not to fall victim, even the Supreme Personality of Godhead cannot give protection.
The Supreme Lord and His representative always want to give protection, but a person must take advantage of their personal contact.
If one thinks that the Supreme Personality of Godhead or His representative is an ordinary man, he will certainly fall down.
Thus Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu did not want a person like Kala Krsnadasa to accompany Him.
He wanted someone who was determined, who had a peaceful mind and who was not agitated by ulterior motives.
17.15
svarupa kahe,--ei balabhadra-bhattacarya
tomate susnigdha bada, pandita, sadhu, arya

Svarupa Damodara then said, "Here is Balabhadra Bhattacarya, who has great love for You.
He is an honest, learned scholar, and he is advanced in spiritual consciousness.
PURPORT
Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu wanted a new man, not a person like Kala Krsnadasa who would fall for women.
Svarupa Damodara therefore immediately pointed out a new brahmana named Balabhadra Bhattacarya.
Sri Svarupa Damodara Gosvami had studied this person very thoroughly and had seen that he had great love for Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu.
Not only did he love the Lord, but he was also learned and honest.
He was not duplicitous, and he was advanced in Krsna consciousness.
According to a Bengali proverb, ati bhakti corera laksana: “Too much devotion is a symptom of a thief.” A person who assumes himself to be a great devotee but mentally is thinking of something else is duplicitous.
One who is not duplicitous is called sadhu.
Svarupa Damodara immediately pointed out that Balabhadra Bhattacarya was quite fit to accompany the Lord because he was a learned scholar and was simple and had great love for Sri Krsna Caitanya Mahaprabhu.
He was also advanced in Krsna consciousness; therefore he was considered appropriate to accompany the Lord as a personal servant.
The word snigdha (very peaceful) and the word su-snigdha (affectionate) are used in verses fourteen and fifteen, and they are also found in Srimad-Bhagavatam (1.1.8): bruyuh snigdhasya sisyasya guravo guhyam apy uta “A disciple who has actual love for his spiritual master is endowed, by the blessings of the spiritual master, with all confidential knowledge.” Srila Sridhara Svami has commented that the word snigdhasya means prema-vatah.
The word prema-vatah indicates that one has great love for his spiritual master.

PURPORT
Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu was the Supreme personality of Godhead playing the part of a very great advanced devotee.
On the maha-bhagavata platform, the devotee makes no distinction between friends and enemies.
On that platform he sees everyone as a servant of Krsna.
As stated in Bhagavad-gita:
vidya-vinaya-sampanne
brahmane gavi hastini
suni caiva svapake ca
panditah sama-darsinah “The humble sage, by virtue of true knowledge, sees with equal vision a learned and gentle brahmana, a cow, an elephant, a dog, and a dog-eater (outcaste).” (Bg.5.18) A maha-bhagavata, being learned and advanced in spiritual consciousness, sees no difference between a tiger, an elephant or a learned scholar.
The test of advanced spiritual consciousness is that one becomes fearless.
He envies no one, and he is always engaged in the Lord’s service.
He sees every living entity as an eternal part and parcel of the Lord, rendering service according to his capacity by the will of the Supreme Lord.
As Bhagavad-gita confirms:
sarvasya caham hrdi sannivisto
mattah smrtir jnanam apohanam ca “I am seated in everyone’s heart, and from Me come remembrance, knowledge and forgetfulness.” (Bg.15.15) The maha-bhagavata knows that Krsna is in everyone’s heart.
Krsna is dictating, and the living entity is following His dictations.
Krsna is within the heart of the tiger, elephant and boar.
Therefore Krsna tells them, “Here is a maha-bhagavata.
Please do not disturb him.” Why, then, should the animals be envious of such a great personality? Those who are neophytes or even a little progressed in devotional service should not try to imitate the maha-bhagavata.
Rather, they should only follow in their footsteps.
The word anukara means “imitating,” and anusara means “trying to follow in the footsteps.” We should not try to imitate the activities of a maha-bhagavata or Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu.
Our best efforts should be exerted in trying to follow them according to our ability.
The maha-bhagavata’s heart is completely freed from material contamination, and he can become very dear even to fierce animals like tigers and elephants.
Indeed, the maha-bhagavata treats them as his very intimate friends.
On this platform there is no question of envy.
When the Lord was passing through the forest, He was in ecstasy, thinking the forest to be Vrndavana.
He was simply searching for Krsna.

PURPORT
The transcendental power or potency of the Hare Krsna maha-mantra is herein explained.
First, the holy name is vibrated by Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu.
When someone hears from Him directly, he is purified.
When another person hears from that person, he also is purified.
In this way the purification process is advanced among pure devotees.
Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu is the Supreme Personality of Godhead, and no one can claim His potency.
Nonetheless, if one is a pure devotee, hundreds and thousands of men can be purified by his vibration.
This potency is within every living being, provided he chants the Hare Krsna maha-mantra offenselessly and without material motives.
When a pure devotee chants offenselessly, another person will become a Vaisnava, and from him another Vaisnava will emerge.
This is the parampara system.

Although Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu did not manifest His natural ecstatic love, everyone became a pure devotee simply by seeing and hearing Him.
PURPORT
Srila Rupa Gosvami has described Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu as maha-vadanya-avatara, the most munificent incarnation.
Although Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu is not physically present now, simply by chanting His holy name (sri-krsna-caitanya prabhu nityananda sri-advaita gadadhara srivasadi-gaura-bhakta-vrnda) people throughout the world are becoming devotees.
This is due to the ecstatic chanting of the holy name of the Lord.
It is said that a pure devotee can see the Lord every moment, and because of this he is empowered by the Lord.
This is confirmed in the Brahma-samhita: premanjana-cchurita-bhakti-vilocanena santah sadaiva hrdayesu vilokayanti.
Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu appeared five hundred years ago, but it cannot be said that now the potency of the Hare Krsna maha-mantra is less powerful than it was in His presence.
By hearing Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu through the parampara system, one can be purified.
Therefore in this verse it is said: tathapi tanra darsana-sravana-prabhave.
It is not that everyone is able to see Krsna or Sri Krsna Caitanya Mahaprabhu physically, but if one hears about Him through books like Sri Caitanya-caritamrta and through the parampara system of pure Vaisnavas, there is no difficulty in becoming a pure Vaisnava, free from mundane desires and personal motivations.

PURPORT
As evidence of Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu’s mercy, we are experiencing that the people of Africa are taking to Krsna consciousness, chanting and dancing and taking prasada like other Vaisnavas.
This is all due to the power of Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu.

In some villages there were no brahmanas; nonetheless, devotees born in non-brahmana families came and extended invitations to Balabhadra Bhattacarya.
PURPORT
Actually a sannyasi or a brahmana will not accept an invitation extended by a person born in a lower family.
However, there are many devotees who are raised to the platform of brahmana by their initiation.
These people are called sudra-mahajana.
This indicates that one who is born in a non-brahmana family has accepted the brahmana status by initiation.
Such devotees extended invitations to Balabhadra Bhattacarya.
A Mayavadi sannyasi will accept an invitation only from a brahmana family, but a Vaisnava does not accept an invitation from a brahmana if he does not belong to the Vaisnava sect.
However, a Vaisnava will accept an invitation from a brahmana or sudra-mahajana if that person is an initiated Vaisnava.
Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu Himself accepted invitations from sudra-mahajanas, and this confirms the fact that anyone initiated by a Vaisnava mantra can be accepted as a brahmana.
One can accept an invitation from such a person.

PURPORT
Kasi is another name for Varanasi (Benares).
It has been a place of pilgrimage since time immemorial.
Two rivers named Asih and Varuna merge there.
Manikarnika is famous because, according to the opinion of great personalities, a bejeweled earring fell there from the ear of Lord Visnu.
According to some, it fell from the ear of Lord Siva.
The word mani means “jewel,” and karnika means “from the ear.” According to some, Lord Visvanatha is the great physician who cures the disease of material existence by delivering a person through the ear, which receives the vibration of the holy name of Lord Rama.
Because of this, this holy place is called Mani-karnika.
It is said that there is no better place than where the River Ganges flows, and the bathing ghat known as Manikarnika is especially sanctified because it is very dear to Lord Visvanatha.
In the Kasi-khanda it is said: samsari-cintamanir atra yasmat tarakam sajjana-karnikayam sivo ’bhidhatte saha-santa-kale tad giyate ’sau mani-karniketi mukti-laksmi maha-pitha-manis tac caranabjayoh karnikeyam tatah prahur yam jana mani-karnikam.
According to the Kasi-khanda, if one gives up his body at Manikarnika, he is liberated simply by remembering Lord Siva’s name.

PURPORT
This Bindu Madhava is the oldest Visnu temple in Varanasi.
Presently this temple is known as Veni Madhava, and it is situated on the banks of the Ganges.
Formerly five rivers converged there, and they were named Dhutapapa, Kirana, Sarasvati, Ganga and Yamuna.
Now only the River Ganges is visible.
The old temple of Bindu Madhava, which was visited by Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu, was later dismantled by Aurangzeb, the great Hindu-hating emperor of the Mogul dynasty.
In the place of this temple, he constructed a big majida, or mosque.
Later, another temple was constructed by the side of the mosque, and this temple is still existing.
In the temple of Bindu Madhava there are Deities of four-handed Narayana and the goddess Laksmi.
In front of these Deities is a column of Sri Garuda, and along the side are deities of Lord Rama, Sita, Laksmana and Sri Hanumanji.
In the province of Maharastra is a state known as Satara.
During the time of Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati Thakura, the native prince belonged to the Vaisnava cult.
Being a brahmana, he took charge of worshiping the Deity.
He was known as Srimanta Balasaheba Pantha Maharaja.
The state still bears the expenditure for temple maintenance.
The first king in this dynasty to take charge of worship in the temple, two hundred years ago, was Maharaja Jagatjivana Rao Saheba.

Tapana Misra invited Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu to take lunch at his home, and he had Balabhadra Bhattacarya cook.
PURPORT
While at Varanasi (Benares), Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu stayed at the house of Tapana Misra.
Near Tapana Misra’s house was a bathing ghat known as Pancanadi-ghata.
Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu used to take His bath daily at this ghat, and He used to see the temple of Bindu Madhava.
Then He took His lunch at Tapana Misra’s house.
Near the Bindu Madhava temple is a big banyan tree, and it is said that after eating, Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu used to rest beneath the tree.
That banyan tree is still known today as Caitanya-vata.
Gradually, due to changes in language, the name became Yatana-vata.
The local people still call that place Yatana-vata.
Presently, beside a lane there is a tomb of Vallabhacarya, but there is no sign that Caitanya Mahaprabhu ever lived there.
Vallabhacarya was also known as Mahaprabhu among his disciples.
Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu probably lived at Yatana-vata, but there is no sign of Candrasekhara’s or Tapana Misra’s house, nor is there sign of the Mayavadi sannyasi Prakasananda Sarasvati, with whom Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu discussed Vedanta-sutra.
A little distance from Yatana-vata is a temple of Gaura-Nityananda established by Sasibhusana Niyogi Mahasaya of Calcutta.
This temple is now managed by the mother-in-law of Sasibhusana and his brother-in-law Narayana-candra Ghosh.

17.95
apana-prarabdhe vasi’ varanasi-sthane
’maya’, ’brahma’ sabda vina nahi suni kane
SYNONYMS
apana-prarabdhe—because of my past deeds; vasi’-staying; varanasi-sthane—in the place known as Varanasi; maya—maya; brahma—and brahma; sabda—the words; vina—except; nahi suni—I do not hear; kane—in the ear “Due to my past deeds, I am residing at Varanasi, but here I do not hear anything but the words maya and Brahman.”
PURPORT
The word prarabdhe (past deeds) is important in this verse.
Since Candrasekhara was a devotee, he was always eager to hear about Krsna and His transcendental pastimes.
Most of the inhabitants of Benares were and are impersonalists, worshipers of Lord Siva and followers of the pancopasana method.
The impersonalists imagine some form of the impersonal Brahman, and to facilitate meditation they concentrate upon the forms of Visnu, Siva, Ganesa, Surya and goddess Durga.
Actually these pancopasakas are not devotees of anyone.
As it is said, to be a servant of everyone is to be the servant of no one.
Varanasi, or Kasi, is the chief holy place of pilgrimage for impersonalists, and it is not at all suitable for devotees.
A Vaisnava likes to live in a visnu-tirtha, a place where Lord Visnu’s temples are present.
In Varanasi there are many hundreds and thousands of Lord Siva’s temples, or pancopasaka temples.
Consequently Candrasekhara expressed great unhappiness as he informed Lord Caitanya that he was obliged to live at Benares due to his past misdeeds.
In the Bhakti-rasamrta-sindhu it is also said, durjaty-arambhakam papam yat syat prarabdham eva tat “According to one’s past misdeeds, one takes birth on a lower platform.” In the Brahma-samhita (5.54) it is said: karmani nirdahati kintu ca bhakti-bhajam.
There is no karma attached to the past deeds or misdeeds of one in devotional service.
A devotee is not subjected to karma-phala, the effect of fruitive activity.
Karma-phala is applicable to karmis, not bhaktas.
There are three kinds of devotees: those who are eternally on the transcendental platform (nitya-siddha), those elevated to the transcendental platform by the execution of devotional service (sadhana-siddha), and those who are neophytes advancing toward the perfectional platform (sadhaka).
The sadhakas are gradually becoming free from fruitive reaction.
Bhakti-rasamrta-sindhu (1.1.17) describes the symptoms of bhakti-yoga thus:
klesa-ghni subhada moksa-
laghutakrt sudurlabha
sandrananda-visesatma
sri-krsnakarsini ca sa Devotional service is klesa-ghni even for beginners.
This means that it reduces or nullifies all kinds of suffering.
The word subhada indicates that devotional service bestows all good fortune, and the words krsna-akarsini indicate that devotional service gradually attracts Krsna toward the devotee.
Consequently a devotee is not subject to any sinful reaction.
In Bhagavad-gita (18.66) Krsna says:
sarva-dharman parityajya
mam ekam saranam vraja
aham tvam sarva-papebhyo
moksayisyami ma sucah “Abandon all varieties of religion and just surrender unto Me.
I shall deliver you from all sinful reaction.
Do not fear.” Thus a fully surrendered, sincere devotee immediately receives relief from all kinds of sinful reaction.
There are three stages of fructification for sinful activity.
At one stage, one commits the sinful act.
Before that, the seed of this act exists, and before that there is ignorance whereby one commits the sin.
Suffering is involved in all three stages.
However, Krsna is merciful to His devotee, and consequently He immediately nullifies all three stages-the sin, the seed of sin and the ignorance that leads one to sin.
Padma Purana confirms this:
aprarabdha-phalam papam
kutam bijam phalonmukham
kramenaiva praliyeta
visnu-bhakti-ratatmanam For a further explanation of this, The Nectar of Devotion should be consulted.
17.96
sad-darsana-vyakhya vina katha nahi etha
misra krpa kari’ more sunana krsna-katha
SYNONYMS
sat-darsana—of six kinds of philosophical theses; vyakhya—explanation; vina—except; katha—talk; nahi—not; etha—here; misra—Tapana Misra; krpa kari’-being very merciful; more—unto me; sunana—explains; krsna-katha—topics of Lord Sri Krsna.
Candrasekhara continued, "There is no talk at Varanasi other than discussions on the six philosophical theses.
Nonetheless, Tapana Misra has been very kind to me, for he speaks about topics relating to Lord Krsna.
PURPORT
The six philosophical treatises are: (1) vaisesika, propounded by Kanada Rsi, (2) nyaya, propounded by Gautama Rsi, (3) yoga or mysticism, propounded by Patanjali Rsi, (4) the philosophy of sankhya, propounded by Kapila Rsi, (5) the philosophy of karma-mimamsa, propounded by Jaimini Rsi, and (6) the philosophy of brahma-mimamsa, or Vedanta, the ultimate conclusion of the Absolute Truth (janmady asya yatah), propounded by Vedavyasa.
Actually Vedanta philosophy is meant for the devotees because in Bhagavad-gita Lord Krsna says, vedanta-krd veda-vid eva caham: “I am the compiler of Vedanta, and I am the knower of the Vedas.” (Bg.15.15) Vyasadeva is an incarnation of Krsna, and consequently Krsna is the compiler of Vedanta philosophy.
Therefore Krsna clearly knows the purport of Vedanta philosophy.
As stated in Bhagavad-gita, whoever hears Vedanta philosophy from Krsna is actually aware of the real meaning of Vedanta.
The Mayavadis who have called themselves Vedantists do not at all understand the purport of Vedanta philosophy.
Not being properly educated, people in general think that Vedanta means the Sankarite interpretation.

PURPORT
A Vaisnava sannyasi never accepts an invitation from a party who considers Mayavadi sannyasis and Vaisnava sannyasis to be one and the same.
In other words, Vaisnava sannyasis do not at all like to associate with Mayavadi sannyasis, to say nothing of eating together.
This principle must be followed by the sannyasis of the Krsna consciousness movement.
That is the instruction of Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu given by His personal behavior.
17.104
prakasananda sripada sabhate vasiya
’vedanta’ padana bahu sisya-gana lana
SYNONYMS
prakasananda—Prakasananda; sripada—a great sannyasi; sabhate—in the assembly; vasiya—sitting down; vedanta—Vedanta philosophy; padana—instructs; bahu—many; sisya-gana—disciples; lana—taking.
There was a great Mayavadi sannyasi named Prakasananda Sarasvati who used to teach Vedanta philosophy to a great assembly of followers.
PURPORT
Sripada Prakasananda Sarasvati was a Mayavadi sannyasi, and his characteristics have been described in Caitanya-bhagavata (Madhya-khanda Chapter Three):
’hasta’, ’pada’, ’mukha’ mora nahika ’locana’
veda more ei-mata kare vidambana
kasite padaya veta ’prakasa-ananda’
sei veta kare mora anga khanda-khanda
vakhanaye veda, mora vigraha na mane
sarvange ha-ila kustha, tabu nahi jane
sarva-yajnamaya mora ye-anga--pavitra
’aja’, ’bhava’ adi gaya yanhara caritra
’punya’ pavitrata paya ye-anga-parase
taha ’mithya’ bale veta kemana sahase In the Madhya-khanda, Chapter Twenty, it is said:
sannyasi ’prakasananda’ vasaye kasite
more khanda-khanda veta kare bhala-mate
padaya ’vedanta’, mora ’vigraha’ na mane
kustha karailun ange, tabu nahi jane
’satya’ mora ’lila-karma’, ’satya’ mora ’sthana’
iha ’mithya’ bale, more kare khan-khan Prakasananda Sarasvati used to explain impersonalism, the Absolute Truth, as being without hands, legs, mouths or eyes.
In this way he used to cheat the people by denying the personal form of the Lord.
Such a foolish person was Prakasananda Sarasvati, whose only business was to sever the limbs of the Lord by proving the Lord impersonal.
Although the Lord has form, Prakasananda Sarasvati was attempting to cut off the hands and legs of the Lord.
This is the business of demons.
The Vedas state that people who do not accept the Lord’s form are rascals.
The form of the Lord is factual, for Krsna states in Bhagavad-gita (15.15): vedais ca sarvair aham eva vedyah.
When Krsna says aham, He says “I am,” which means “I,” the person.
He adds the word eva, which is used for conclusive verification.
It is by Vedanta philosophy that one has to know the Supreme Person.
Whoever describes Vedic knowledge as impersonal is a demon.
One becomes successful in life by worshiping the form of the Lord.
The Mayavadi sannyasis deny the form of the Lord, which delivers all fallen souls.
Indeed, this form is cut to pieces by Mayavadi demons.
The Personality of Godhead is worshiped by exalted demigods like Lord Brahma and Lord Siva.
The original Mayavadi sannyasi, Sankaracarya, also accepted the fact that the Lord’s form is transcendental.
Narayanah paro ’vyaktat: “Narayana, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, is beyond the avyakta, the unmanifested material energy.” Avyaktad anda-sambhavah: “This material world is a creation of that unmanifested material energy.” However, Narayana has His own eternal form, which is not created by material energy.
Simply by worshiping the form of the Lord, one is purified.
However, Mayavadi sannyasis are impersonalist philosophers, and they describe the form of the Lord as maya, or false.
How can one be purified by worshiping something false? Mayavadi philosophers have no sufficient reason for being impersonalists.
They blindly follow a principle that cannot be supported by reason or argument.
This was the situation with Prakasananda Sarasvati, the chief Mayavadi sannyasi of Benares.
He was supposed to teach Vedanta philosophy, but he would not accept the form of the Lord; therefore he was attacked with leprosy.
Nonetheless, he continued to commit sins by describing the Absolute Truth as impersonal.
The Absolute Truth, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, always displays pastimes and activities, but Mayavadi sannyasis claim that these activities are false.
Some people falsely claim that Prakasananda Sarasvati later became known as Prabodhananda Sarasvati, but this is not a fact.
Prabodhananda Sarasvati was the uncle and spiritual master of Gopala Bhatta Gosvami.
In his grhastha life, Prabodhananda Sarasvati was a resident of Sri Ranga-ksetra, and he belonged to the Vaisnava Ramanuja-sampradaya.
It is a mistake to consider Prakasananda Sarasvati and Prabodhananda Sarasvati the same man.

Prakasananda Sarasvati said, “Yes, I have heard about Him.
He is a sannyasi from Bengal, and He is very sentimental.
I have also heard that He belongs to the Bharati-sampradaya, for He is a disciple of Kesava Bharati.
However, He is only a pretender.”
PURPORT
Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu was considered bhavuka (sentimental) because He was always seen in the bhava stage.
That is, He always exhibited ecstatic love for Krsna.
However, foolish people considered Him sentimental.
In the material world, so-called devotees sometimes exhibit emotional symptoms.
Caitanya Mahaprabhu’s ecstatic love cannot be compared to the imitative emotional exhibitions of pretenders.
Such exhibitions do not continue for very long.
They are temporary.
We actually see that some emotional imitators exhibit certain symptoms, but immediately after their exhibition, they are attracted to smoking and other things.
In the beginning, when Prakasananda Sarasvati heard of Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu’s activities, he considered them to be those of a pretender.
Consequently he called Him a loka-prataraka, a pretender.
Mayavadis cannot understand the transcendental symptoms exhibited by a devotee; therefore when such symptoms are manifest, the Mayavadis equate them with temporary emotional feelings.
However, Prakasananda Sarasvati’s statement is offensive, and consequently he should be considered an atheist (pasandi).
According to Srila Rupa Gosvami, since Prakasananda Sarasvati was not engaged in the Lord’s devotional service, his sannyasa is to be considered phalgu-vairagya.
This means that since he did not know how to use things for the Lord’s service, his renunciation of the world was artificial.

Since He has some mystic power by which He hypnotizes people, everyone who sees Him is illusioned.

PURPORT
The word ucchrnkhala, meaning “whimsical,” is significant in this verse.
In Bhagavad-gita (16.23), Lord Krsna Himself says:
yah sastra-vidhim utsrjya
vartate kama-karatah
na sa siddhim avapnoti
na sukham na param gatim If one acts whimsically and does not follow the sastric principles, he will never attain perfection, happiness or the spiritual world.

PURPORT
Prakasananda Sarasvati vilified and blasphemed Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu.
Words like brahma, caitanya, atma, paramatma, jagadisa, isvara, virat, vibhu, bhuma, visvarupa and vyapaka all indirectly indicate Krsna.
However, the chanter of these names is not actually attracted to the Supreme Personality of Godhead Krsna and His transcendental pastimes.
One may get a little light from these names, but one cannot understand that the holy name of the Lord is identical with the Lord.
One considers the Lord’s names material due to a poor fund of knowledge.
Mayavadi philosophers and the pancopasakas cannot in the least understand the existence of the spiritual world and the blissful variegatedness there.
They cannot understand the Absolute Truth and its spiritual varieties-name, form, qualities and pastimes.
Consequently they conclude that Krsna’s transcendental activities are maya.
Due to this, one has to directly cultivate knowledge about the holy name of the Lord.
Mayavadi philosophers do not know this fact, and therefore they commit great offenses.
One should not hear anything about Krsna or devotional service from the mouths of Mayavadi impersonalists.
17.128

As far as I am concerned, simply by seeing You I am moved to chant the holy names of Krsna and Hari.”
17.129
prabhu kahe,--"mayavadi krsne aparadhi

Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu replied, "Mayavadi impersonalists are great offenders unto Lord Krsna; therefore they simply utter the words Brahman, atma and caitanya.
17.130

’krsna-nama’, ’krsna-svarupa’--duita ’samana’
SYNONYMS

tine ’bheda’ nahi,--tina ’cid-ananda-rupa’

Since all of them are absolute, they are transcendentally blissful.
17.132
deha-dehira, nama-namira krsne nahi ’bheda’
jivera dharma--nama-deha-svarupe ’vibheda’
SYNONYMS
deha-dehira—of the body and the owner of the body; nama-namira—of the name and the owner of the name; krsne—in Krsna; nahi bheda—there is no difference; jivera dharma—the situation of the conditioned soul; nama—name; deha—body; sva-rupe—original form; vibheda—different "There is no difference between Krsna’s body and Himself or between His name and Himself.
As far as the conditioned soul is concerned, everything is different.
One’s name is different from the body, from one’s original form and so on.
PURPORT
Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu is herein pointing out to the brahmana that Mayavadi philosophers cannot understand that the living entity is equal in quality with the Supreme Personality of Godhead.
Because they do not accept this, they think that the living entity has been falsely divided from the original Brahman due to being conditioned by maya.
Mayavadis believe that the Absolute Truth is ultimately impersonal.
When an incarnation of God or God Himself comes, they think He is covered by maya.
In other words, Mayavadi impersonalists think that the Lord’s form is also a product of this material world.
Due to a poor fund of knowledge, they cannot understand that Krsna has no body separate from Himself.
His body and Himself are both the same Absolute Truth.
Not having perfect knowledge of Krsna, such impersonalists certainly commit offenses at His lotus feet.
Therefore they do not utter the original name of the Absolute Truth, Krsna.
In their impersonal way, they utter the name of impersonal Brahman, spirit soul.
In other words, they indulge in indirect indications of the Absolute Truth.
Even if they happen to utter the name of Govinda, Krsna or Madhava, they still cannot understand that these names are as good as Govinda, Krsna or Madhava the person.
Because they are ultimately impersonalists, their uttering of the personal name has no potency.
Actually they do not believe in Krsna but consider all these names to be material vibrations.
Not being able to appreciate the holy name of the Lord, they simply utter indirect names like Brahman, atma and caitanya.
It is a fact, however, that the name of Krsna and Krsna the person are both spiritual.
Everything about Krsna is transcendental, blissful and objective.
For a conditioned soul, the body is different from the soul, and the name given by the father is also different from the soul.
The conditioned living entity’s identification with material objects keeps him from attaining his actual position.
Although he is an eternal servant of Krsna, he acts differently.
The svarupa, or actual identification of the living entity, is described by Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu as jivera ’svarupa’ haya-krsnera ’nitya-dasa’.
The conditioned soul has forgotten the real activities of his original position.
However, this is not the case with Krsna.
Krsna’s name and His person are identical.
There is no such thing as maya Krsna because Krsna is not a product of the material creation.
There is no difference between Krsna’s body and His soul.
Krsna is simultaneously both soul and body.
The distinction between body and soul applies to conditioned souls.
The body of the conditioned soul is different from the soul, and the conditioned soul’s name is different from his body.
One may be named Mr.
John, but if we call for Mr.
John, Mr.
John may never actually appear.
However, if we utter the holy name of Krsna, Krsna is immediately present on our tongue.
In the Padma Purana, Krsna says, mad-bhakta yatra gayanti tatra tisthami narada: “O Narada, I am present wherever My devotees are chanting.” When the devotees chant the holy name of Krsna-Hare Krsna, Hare Krsna, Krsna Krsna, Hare Hare Hare Rama, Hare Rama, Rama Rama, Hare Hare-Lord Krsna is immediately present.
17.133
nama cintamanih krsnas

SYNONYMS
namah—the holy name; cintamanih—transcendentally blissful giver of all spiritual benedictions; krsnah—not different from Krsna; caitanya-rasa-vigrahah—the form of all transcendental mellows; purnah—complete; suddhah—pure, without material contamination; nitya—eternal; muktah—liberated; abhinna-tvat—due to not being different; nama—of the holy name; naminoh—and of the person who has the name " ’The holy name of Krsna is transcendentally blissful.
It bestows all spiritual benedictions, for it is Krsna Himself, the reservoir of all pleasure.
Krsna’s name is complete, and it is the form of all transcendental mellows.
It is not a material name under any condition, and it is no less powerful than Krsna Himself.
Since Krsna’s name is not contaminated by the material qualities, there is no question of its being involved with maya.
Krsna’s name is always liberated and spiritual; it is never conditioned by the laws of material nature.
This is because the name of Krsna and Krsna Himself are identical.’

This is a quotation from Padma Purana.
17.134
ataeva krsnera ’nama’, ’deha’, ’vilasa’
prakrtendriya-grahya nahe, haya sva-prakasa
SYNONYMS
ataeva—therefore; krsnera—of Lord Krsna; nama—the holy name; deha—the spiritual body; vilasa—the pastimes; prakrta-indriya—by the dull senses made of matter; grahya—perceptible; nahe—not; haya—are; sva-prakasa—self-manifested "The holy name of Krsna, His body and His pastimes cannot be understood by blunt material senses.
They are manifest independently.
PURPORT
The transcendental body of Krsna, His name, form, qualities, pastimes and entourage all constitute the Absolute Truth and are as good as Krsna (sac-cid-ananda-vigraha).
As long as the living entity is conditioned by the three modes of material nature-(goodness, passion and ignorance)-the objects of his material senses-material form, taste, smell, sound and touch-will not help him understand spiritual knowledge and bliss.
Rather, these are revealed to the pure devotee.
One’s material name, form and qualities are certainly different from one another.
In the material world, there is no conception of absolute; however, when we come to Krsna consciousness we find that there is no material difference between Krsna’s body and His names, activities and entourage.

When a conditioned soul is awakened to Krsna consciousness and renders service by using his tongue to chant the Lord’s holy name and taste the remnants of the Lord’s food, the tongue is purified, and one gradually comes to understand who Krsna really is.’

PURPORT
When one understands that he belongs not to the material world but to the spiritual world, one is called liberated.
Being situated in the spiritual world is certainly pleasurable, but those who realize the transcendental name, form, qualities and pastimes of Lord Krsna enjoy transcendental bliss many times more than one who has simply realized the self.
When one is situated on the platform of self-realization, he can certainly be easily attracted by Krsna and become a servant of the Lord.
This is explained in Bhagavad-gita:
brahma-bhutah prasannatma
na socati na kanksati
samah sarvesu bhutesu
mad-bhaktim labhate param “One who is thus transcendentally situated at once realizes the Supreme Brahman and becomes joyful.
He never laments or desires to have anything; he is equally disposed to every living entity.
In that state he attains pure devotional service unto Me.” (Bg.18.54) When one becomes spiritually realized (brahma-bhuta), he becomes happy (prasannatma), for he is relieved from material conceptions.
One who has attained this platform is not agitated by material action and reaction.
He sees everyone on the platform of spirit soul (panditah sama-darsinah).
When one is completely realized, he can rise to the platform of pure devotional service (mad-bhaktim-labhate param).
When one comes to the platform of bhakti, devotional service, he automatically realizes who Krsna is bhaktya mam abhijanati
yavan yas casmi tattvatah
tato mam tattvato jnatva
visate tad-anantaram “One can understand the Supreme Personality as He is only by devotional service.
And when one is in full consciousness of the Supreme Lord by such devotion, he can enter into the kingdom of God.” (Bg.18.55) It is only on the bhakti platform that one can understand the Supreme Personality of Godhead Krsna and His transcendental name, form, qualities, pastimes and entourage.
Being thus qualified spiritually (visate tad-anantaram), one is allowed to enter the spiritual kingdom of God and return home, back to Godhead.

Although in the beginning he was absorbed in the happiness of Brahman realization and was living in a secluded place, giving up all other types of consciousness, he became attracted by the most melodious pastimes of Lord Sri Krsna.
He therefore mercifully spoke the supreme Purana, known as Srimad-Bhagavatam, which is the bright light of the Absolute Truth and which describes the activities of Lord Krsna.’

PURPORT
This is a verse from Srimad-Bhagavatam (3.15.43).
Vidura and Maitreya discussed the pregnancy of Diti.
Diti’s pregnancy caused the demigods to be very much afraid, and the demigods went to see Lord Brahma.
Lord Brahma explained the original incident involving the cursing of Jaya and Vijaya by the Catuh-sana Kumaras.
Sometimes the Catuh-sana Kumaras went to Vaikuntha to visit Narayana, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, and once they were stopped from entering the palace at the seventh gate by two doorkeepers named Jaya and Vijaya.
Due to their jealousy, Jaya and Vijaya would not allow the Kumaras entry, and consequently the Kumaras became angry and cursed Jaya and Vijaya, condemning them to take birth in a family of asuras in the material world.
The omniscient Personality of Godhead could immediately understand the incident, and He came with His eternal consort the goddess of fortune.
The Catuh-sana Kumaras immediately offered their obeisances unto the Lord.
Simply by seeing the Lord and smelling the aroma of tulasi and saffron from His lotus feet, the Kumaras became devotees and abandoned their long-cherished impersonalism.
Thus the four Kumaras were turned into Vaisnavas simply by smelling the aromatic tulasi mixed with saffron.
Those who are actually on the platform of Brahman realization and who have not offended the lotus feet of Krsna can immediately become Vaisnavas simply by smelling the aroma of the Lord’s lotus feet.
However, those who are offenders or demons are never attracted to the Lord’s personal feature, even though they may visit the Lord’s temple many times.
In Vrndavana we have seen many Mayavadi sannyasis who do not even come to the temple of Govindaji, Gopinatha or Madana-mohana because they think that such temples are maya.
Therefore they are called Mayavadis.
Sri Krsna Caitanya Mahaprabhu therefore said that the Mayavadis are the greatest offenders.
17.143
ataeva ’krsna-nama’ na aise tara mukhe
mayavadi-gana yate maha bahirmukhe

PURPORT
Because they are constantly blaspheming the Supreme Personality of Godhead by saying that He has no head, hands or legs, Mayavadi philosophers remain offenders for many, many births, even though they have partially realized Brahman.
However, if such impersonalists are not offenders at the lotus feet of the Lord, they immediately become devotees in the association of a devotee.
In other words, if an impersonalist is not an offender, he can become a devotee if he gets a chance to associate with other devotees.
If he is an offender, he cannot be converted even by the association of the Supreme Personality of Godhead.
Sri Krsna Caitanya Mahaprabhu was very much afraid of this Mayavadi offender; therefore He spoke as follows.
17.144

alpa-svalpa-mulya paile, ethai veciba
SYNONYMS

To take it back again is a very difficult job; therefore if I get but a fraction of the price, I shall sell it here in this city of Kasi.”
PURPORT
Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu was selling the transcendental holy name of the Lord.
However, Kasi was a city of Mayavadis (impersonalists), and such people will never chant the holy names of the Hare Krsna maha-mantra.
Consequently Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu was feeling disappointed.
How could He teach the Mayavadis the importance of chanting the Hare Krsna maha-mantra? The attraction for chanting the holy name of the Lord belongs absolutely to pure devotees, and there was no possibility of finding pure devotees at Kasi.
Consequently Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu’s commodity was certainly very heavy.
The Lord therefore suggested that even though there were no pure devotees in Kasi, if someone was a little inclined to chant the Hare Krsna mantra, He would deliver this big load, although the proper price was not paid.
Actually we experienced this when we came to preach the Hare Krsna movement in the West.
When we came to New York in 1965, we never expected that the Hare Krsna maha-mantra would be accepted in this country.
Nonetheless, we invited people to our storefront to join in chanting the Hare Krsna mantra, and the Lord’s holy name is so attractive that simply by coming to our storefront in New York, fortunate young people became Krsna conscious.
Although this mission was started with insignificant capital, it is now going nicely.
The spreading of the Hare Krsna maha-mantra in the West has become successful because the young people were not offenders.
The youths who joined this movement were not very advanced as far as purity was concerned, nor were they very well educated in Vedic knowledge, but because they were not offenders, they could accept the importance of the Hare Krsna movement.
We are now very happy to see that this movement is advancing more and more in the Western countries.
We therefore conclude that the so-called mlecchas and yavanas of the Western countries are more purified than offensive Mayavadis or atheistic impersonalists.

The city of Prayaga is situated a few miles from the city of Allahabad.
The name Prayaga is given due to successful sacrifices performed there.
It is said: prakrstah yagah yaga-phalam yasmat.
If one performs sacrifices at Prayaga, he certainly gets immediate results without difficulty.
Prayaga is also called Tirtharaja, the king of all places of pilgrimage.
This holy place is situated on the confluence of the Rivers Ganges and Yamuna.
Every year a fair takes place there known as Magha-mela, and every twelve years a Kumbha-mela is also held.
In any case, many people come to bathe there every year.
During Magha-mela, people from the local district generally come, and during Kumbha-mela people come from all over India to live there and bathe in the Ganges and Yamuna.
Whoever goes there immediately feels the place’s spiritual influence.
A fort located there was constructed by the Emperor Akbar about five hundred years ago, and near the fort is a place called Triveni.
On the other side of Prayaga is an old place known as Pratisthana-pura.
It is also well known as Jhunsi.
Many saintly people live there, and consequently it is very attractive from the spiritual point of view.

PURPORT
At the present moment, the temple of Kesavaji is very much improved.
At one time, Kesavaji-mandira was attacked by the emperor Aurangzeb, who constructed such a big mosque there that the temple of Kesavaji was insignificant in comparison.
However, with the help of many rich Madwaris, the temple has improved, and a very large temple is now being constructed so that the mosque is now appearing diminished in comparison.
Many archeological discoveries have been made there, and many people from foreign countries are beginning to appreciate Krsna’s birthplace.

PURPORT
In northwestern India, vaisyas are divided in various subdivisions.
Srila Bhaktivinoda Thakura points out that they are divided as Agaraoyala, Kalaoyara and Sanoyada.
Out of them, the Agaraoyalas are supposed to be first-class vaisyas, and the Kalaoyaras and Sanoyadas are considered lower due to their occupational degradation.
The Kalaoyaras generally take wine and other intoxicants.
Although they are vaisyas, they are considered to belong to a lower class.
The priests who guide the Kalaoyaras and the Sanoyadas are called Sanodiya brahmanas.
Srila Bhaktivinoda Thakura states that the word sanoyada in Bengal indicates suvarna-vanik.
In Bengal there are priests who guide the suvarna-vanik community, which is also considered a low class.
There is little difference between the Sanoyada and the suvarna-vanik.
Generally the suvarna-vaniks are bankers dealing in gold and silver.
In western India, the Agaraoyalas also belong to the banking profession.
This is the original business of the suvarna-vanik or Agaraoyala community.
Historically, the Agaraoyalas came from the up-country named Ayodha, and the suvarna-vanik community came from Ayodha.
It appears that the suvarna-vaniks and the Agaraoyalas belong to the same community.
The Sanodiya brahmanas were the guides of the Kalaoyara and Sanoyada.
They are therefore considered to be lower-class brahmanas, and a sannyasi is not allowed to take alms or food from them.
However, Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu accepted lunch cooked by a Sanodiya brahmana simply because he belonged to Madhavendra Puri’s community.
Srila Madhavendra Puri was the spiritual master of Isvara Puri, who was the spiritual master of Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu.
Thus a spiritual relationship is established on the spiritual platform without consideration of material inferiority or superiority.

The food he cooked was also accepted by Madhavendra Puri.

SYNONYMS
mahaprabhu—Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu; tanre—from him; yadi—when; bhiksa magila—requested lunch; dainya kari’-out of humility; sei vipra—that brahmana; kahite lagila—began to speak.
Therefore Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu willingly requested food from the brahmana, and the brahmana, feeling a natural humility, began to speak as follows.

PURPORT
Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati Thakura remarks that although the brahmana did not belong to a superior community, he fearlessly chastised so-called caste brahmanas because he was situated on the platform of pure devotional service.
There are people who are opposed to Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu’s accepting a Vaisnava belonging to a lower caste.
Such people do not consider maha-prasada transcendental, and therefore they are described here as murkha (foolish) and dusta (mischievous).
A pure devotee has the power to challenge such high-caste people, and his brave statements are not to be considered proud or puffed up.
On the contrary, he is to be considered straightforward.
Such a person does not like to flatter high-class brahmanas who belong to the non-Vaisnava community.

prabhu kahe,--sruti, smrti, yata rsi-gana

Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu replied, "The Vedas, Puranas and great learned sages are not always in agreement with one another.
Consequently there are different religious principles.
PURPORT
Unless one comes to the Absolute Truth, there is no possibility of agreement.
Nasav rsir yasya matam na bhinnam: it is said that a great learned scholar or sage cannot be exalted unless he disagrees.
On the material platform, there is no possibility of agreement; therefore there are different kinds of religious systems.
However, the Absolute Truth is one, and when one is situated in the Absolute Truth, there is no disagreement.
On that absolute platform the Supreme Personality of Godhead is worshipable.
As stated in Bhagavad-gita (18.55): bhaktya mam abhijanati yavan yas casmi tattvatah.
On the absolute platform, the worshipful Deity is one, and the process of worship is also one.
That process is bhakti.
There are many different religions throughout the world because they are not all on the absolute platform of devotional service.
As confirmed in Bhagavad-gita (18.66): sarva-dharman parityajya mam ekam saranam vraja.
The word ekam means “one,” Krsna.
On this platform, there are no different religious systems.
According to Srimad-Bhagavatam (1.1.2): dharmah projjhita-kaitavo ’tra.
On the material platform, religious systems are different.
Srimad-Bhagavatam describes them from the very beginning as dharmah kaitavah, cheating religions.
None of these religions are actually genuine.
The genuine religious system is that which enables one to become a lover of the Supreme Personality of Godhead.
In the words of Srimad-Bhagavatam (1.2.6):
sa vai pumsam paro dharmo
yato bhaktir adhoksaje
ahaituky apratihata
yayatma suprasidati “The supreme occupation (dharma) for all humanity is that by which men can attain to loving devotional service unto the transcendent Lord.
Such devotional service must be unmotivated and uninterrupted in order to completely satisfy the self.” On this platform there is nothing but the service of the Lord.
When a person has no ulterior motive, there is certainly oneness and agreement of principles.
Since everyone has a different body and mind, different types of religions are needed.
But when one is situated on the spiritual platform, there are no bodily and mental differences.
Consequently on the absolute platform there is oneness in religion.

The behavior of Madhavendra Puri Gosvami is the essence of such religious principles.”
PURPORT
Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati Thakura gives the following commentary on this passage.
A sadhu or an honest man is called a mahajana or a mahatma.
The mahatma is thus described in Bhagavad-gita:
mahatmanas tu mam partha
daivim prakrtim asritah
bhajanty ananya-manaso
jnatva bhutadim avyayam “O son of Prtha, those who are not deluded, the great souls, are under the protection of the divine nature.
They are fully engaged in devotional service because they know Me as the Supreme Personality of Godhead, original and inexhaustible.” (Bg.9.13) In the material world, the word mahatma is understood in different ways by different religionists.
Mundaners also come up with their different angles of vision.
For the conditioned soul busy in sense gratification, a mahajana is recognized according to the proportion of sense gratification he offers.
For instance, a businessman may consider a certain banker to be a mahajana, and karmis desiring material enjoyment may consider philosophers like Jaimini to be mahajanas.
There are many yogis who want to control the senses, and for them Patanjali Rsi is a maha-jana.
For the jnanis, the atheist Kapila, Vasistha, Durvasa, Dattatreya and other impersonalist philosophers are mahajanas.
For the demons, Hiranyaksa, Hiranyakasipu, Ravana, Ravana’s son Meghanada, Jarasandha and others are accepted as mahajanas.
For materialistic anthropologists speculating on the evolution of the body, a person like Darwin is a mahajana.
The scientists who are bewildered by Krsna’s external energy have no relationship with the Supreme Personality of Godhead, yet they are accepted by some as mahajanas.
Similarly, philosophers, historians, literary men, public speakers and social and political leaders are sometimes accepted as mahajanas.
Such mahajanas are respected by certain men who have been described in Srimad-Bhagavatam (2.3.19):
sva-vid-varahostra-kharaih
samstutah purusah pasuh
na yat-karna-pathopeto
jatu nama gadagrajah “Men who are like dogs, hogs, camels and asses praise those men who never listen to the transcendental pastimes of Lord Sri Krsna, the deliverer from evils.” Thus on the material platform animalistic leaders are worshiped by animals.
Sometimes physicians, psychiatrists and social workers try to mitigate bodily pain, distress and fear, but they have no knowledge of spiritual identity and are bereft of a relationship with God.
Yet they are considered mahajanas by the illusioned.
Self-deceived persons sometimes accept leaders or spiritual masters from a priestly order that has been officially appointed by the codes of material life.
In this way, they are deceived by official priests.
Sometimes people accept as maha-janas those who have been designated by Srila Vrndavana dasa Thakura as dhanga-vipras (imposter brahmanas).
Such imposters imitate the characteristics of Srila Haridasa Thakura, and they envy Haridasa Thakura, who was certainly a mahajana.
They make great artificial endeavors, advertising themselves as great devotees of the Lord or as mystic hypnotists knowledgeable in witchcraft, hypnotism and miracles.
Sometimes people accept demons like Putana, Trnavarta, Vatsa, Baka, Aghasura and Dhenuka, Kaliya and Pralamba.
Some people accept imitators and adversaries of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, such as Paundraka, Srgala Vasudeva, the spiritual master of the demons (Sukracarya), or atheists like Carvaka, King Vena, Sugata and Arhat.
Such people have no faith in Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu as the Supreme Personality of Godhead.
Rather, they accept godless cheaters who present themselves as incarnations of God and cheat foolish people within the material world by word jugglery.
Thus many rascals are accepted as mahajanas.
In this material world a person may be famous as a karma-vira, a successful fruitive worker, or one may be very successful in performing religious duties, or he may be known as a hero in mental speculation (jnana-vira), or he may be a very famous renunciant.
In any case, Srimad-Bhagavatam (3.23.56) gives the following opinion in this matter neha yat karma dharmaya
na viragaya kalpate
na tirtha-pada-sevayai
jivann api mrto hi sah “Anyone whose work is not meant to elevate him to religious life, anyone whose religious ritualistic performances do not raise him to renunciation, and anyone situated in renunciation that does not lead him to devotional service to the Supreme Personality of Godhead must be considered dead, although he is breathing.” The conclusion is that all pious activity, fruitive activity, religious principles and renunciation must ultimately lead to devotional service.
There are different types of processes for rendering service.
One may serve his country, people, society, the varnasrama-dharma, the sick, the poor, the rich, women, demigods and so on.
All this comes under the heading of sense gratification, or enjoyment in the material world.
It is most unfortunate that people are more or less attracted by such material activity and that the leaders of these activities are accepted as mahajanas, great ideal leaders.
Actually they are only misleaders, but an ordinary man cannot understand how he is being misled.
Narottama dasa Thakura says: sadhu-sastra-guru-vakya, cittete kariya aikya.
A sadhu is a great personality like Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu.
The sastras are the injunctions of revealed scriptures.
Those who are devoid of devotional service sometimes mistake those who have mundane motives for mahajanas.
The only motive must be krsna-bhakti, devotional service to the Lord.
Sometimes fruitive workers, dry philosophers, nondevotees, mystic yogis and persons attached to material opulence, women and money are considered mahajanas.
However, Srimad-Bhagavatam (6.3.25) gives the following statements about such unauthorized mahajanas:
prayena veda tad idam na mahajano ’yam
devya vimohita-matir bata mayayalam
trayyam jadi-krta-matir madhu-puspitayam
vaitanike mahati karmani yujyamanah In this material world, karmis (fruitive actors) are accepted as mahajanas by foolish people who do not know the value of devotional service.
Their mundane intelligence and mental speculative methods are under the control of the three modes of material nature.
Consequently they cannot understand unalloyed devotional service.
They are attracted by material activities, and they become worshipers of material nature.
Thus they are known as fruitive actors.
They even become entangled in material activities disguised as spiritual activities.
In Bhagavad-gita, such people are described as veda-vada-rata.
They do not understand the real purpose of the Vedas, yet they think of themselves as Vedic authorities.
People versed in Vedic knowledge must know Krsna as the Supreme Personality of Godhead.
Vedais ca sarvair aham eva vedyah (Bg.15.15) A man covered by illusion cannot understand the proper way; therefore Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu says: dharma-sthapana-hetu sadhura vyavahara.
The behavior of a devotee is the criterion for all other behavior.
Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu Himself followed the devotional principles and taught others to follow them.
Puri-gosanira ye acarana, sei dharma sara.
Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu personally followed the behavior of Madhavendra Puri and advised others to follow his principles.
Unfortunately, people have been attracted to the material body since time immemorial yasyatma-buddhih kunape tridhatuke
sva-dhih kalatradisu bhauma ijya-dhih
yat-tirtha-buddhih salile na karhicij
janesv abhijnesu sa eva go-kharah “A human being who identifies this body made of three elements with his self, who considers the by-products of the body to be his kinsmen, who considers the land of birth worshipable, and who goes to the place of pilgrimage simply to take a bath rather than meet men of transcendental knowledge there is to be considered like an ass or a cow.” (Bhag.10.84.13) Those who accept the logic of gad-dalika-pravaha and follow in the footsteps of pseudo-mahajanas are carried away by the waves of maya.
Bhaktivinoda Thakura therefore warns:
miche mayara vase, yaccha bhese’, khaccha habudubu, bhai
jiva krsna-dasa, e visvasa, ka’rle ta’ ara duhkha nai “Don’t be carried away by the waves of maya.
Just surrender to the lotus feet of Krsna, and all miseries will end.” Those who follow social customs and behavior forget to follow the path chalked out by the mahajanas; thus they are offenders at the feet of the mahajanas.
Sometimes they consider such mahajanas very conservative, or they create their own mahajanas.
In this way they ignore the principles of the parampara system.
This is a great misfortune for everyone.
If one does not follow in the footsteps of a real mahajana, one’s plans for happiness will be frustrated.
This is elaborately explained in Madhya-lila (Chapter Twenty-five, verses 55, 56 and 58).
It is there stated:
parama karana isvare keha nahi mane
sva-sva-mata sthape para-matera khandane
tate chaya darsana haite ’tattva’ nahi jani
’mahajana’ yei kahe, sei ’satya’ mani
sri-krsna-caitanya-vani--amrtera dhara
tinho ye kahaye vastu, sei ’tattva’--sara People are so unfortunate that they do not accept the instructions of the Supreme Personality of Godhead.
Instead, they want to be supported by so-called mahajanas, authorities.
Tate chaya darsana haite ’tattva’ nahi jani: we cannot ascertain the real truth simply by following speculators.
We have to follow the footsteps of the mahajanas in the disciplic succession.
Then our attempt will be successful.
Sri-krsna-caitanya-vani-amrtera dhara: “Whatever is spoken by Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu is an incessant flow of nectar.” Whoever accepts His words as reality can understand the essence of the Absolute Truth.
No one can ascertain the Absolute Truth by following the philosophy of Sankhya or Patanjali, for the followers of Sankhya or Patanjali do not accept Lord Visnu as the Supreme Personality of Godhead (na te viduh svartha-gatim hi visnum).
The ambition of such people is never fulfilled; therefore they are attracted by the external energy.
Although mental speculators may be renowned all over the world as great authorities, actually they are not.
Such leaders are themselves conservative and not at all liberal.
However, if we preach this philosophy, people will consider Vaisnavas very sectarian.
Srila Madhavendra Puri was a real mahajana, but misguided people cannot distinguish the real from the unreal.
However, a person who is awakened to Krsna consciousness can understand the real religious path chalked out by the Lord and His pure devotees.
Sri Madhavendra Puri was a real mahajana because he understood the Absolute Truth properly and throughout his life behaved like a pure devotee.
Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu approved the method of Sri Madhavendra Puri.
Therefore, although from the material viewpoint the Sanodiya brahmana was on a lower platform, Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu considered him situated on the highest platform of spiritual realization.
Srimad-Bhagavatam (6.3.20) states that there are twelve mahajanas: Brahma, Narada, Sambhu, Kumara, Kapila, Manu, Prahlada, Janaka, Bhisma, Bali, Sukadeva and Yamaraja.
To select our mahajanas in the Gaudiya-sampradaya, we have to follow in the footsteps of Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu and His representatives.
His next representative is Sri Svarupa Damodara Gosvami, and the next are the six Gosvamis-Sri Rupa, Sri Sanatana, Bhatta Raghunatha, Sri Jiva, Gopala Bhatta and Dasa Raghunatha.
The follower of Visnusvami was Sridhara Svami, the most well known commentator on Srimad-Bhagavatam.
He was also a mahajana.
Similarly, Candidasa, Vidyapati and Jayadeva were all mahajanas.
One who tries to imitate the mahajanas just to become an imitative spiritual master is certainly far away from following in the footsteps of the mahajanas.
Sometimes people cannot actually understand how a mahajana follows other mahajanas.
In this way people are inclined to fall from devotional service.

Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu continued,“ ’Dry arguments are inconclusive.
A great personality whose opinion does not differ from others is not considered a great sage.
Simply by studying the Vedas, which are variegated, one cannot come to the right path by which religious principles are understood.
The solid truth of religious principles is hidden in the heart of an unadulterated self-realized person.
Consequently, as the sastras confirm, one should accept whatever progressive path the mahajanas advocate.’ ”

The forests situated on the eastern side are Bhadravana, Bilvavana, Lauhavana, Bhandiravana and Mahavana.

Lord Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu’s Visit to Sri Vrndavana The following summary of the Eighteenth Chapter is given by Srila Bhaktivinoda Thakura in his Amrta-pravaha-bhasya.
In the village of Arit-grama, Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu discovered the transcendental lakes known as Radha-kunda and Syama-kunda.
He then saw the Deity Harideva at Govardhana Village.
Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu had no desire to climb Govardhana Hill because the hill is worshiped as Krsna.
The Gopala Deity could understand the mind of Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu; therefore on the plea of being attacked by Muslims, Gopala transferred Himself to the village of Ganthuli-grama.
Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu then went to Ganthuli-grama to see Lord Gopala.
Some years later, Lord Gopala also went to Mathura to the temple of Viththalesvara and stayed there for one month just to give an audience to Srila Rupa Gosvami.
After visiting Nandisvara, Pavana-sarovara, Sesasayi, Khela-tirtha, Bhandiravana, Bhadravana, Lohavana and Mahavana, Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu went to Gokula and then finally returned to Mathura.
Seeing a great crowd in Mathura, He moved His residence near Akrura-ghata, and from there He went every day to Vrndavana to see Kaliya-hrada, Dvadasaditya-ghata, Kesi-ghata, Rasa-sthali, Cira-ghata and Amli-tala.
At Kaliya Lake, many people mistook a fisherman for Krsna.
When some respectable people came to see Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu, they expressed their opinion that when one takes sannyasa, he becomes Narayana.
Their mistake was corrected by the Lord.
In this way, their Krsna consciousness was awakened, and they could understand that a sannyasi is simply a living entity and not the Supreme personality of Godhead.
When Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu took His bath at Akrura-ghata, He submerged Himself in the water for a long time.
Balabhadra Bhattacarya decided to take Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu to Prayaga after visiting the holy place known as Soroksetra.
While stopping near a village on the way to Prayaga, Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu fainted in ecstatic love.
Some Pathana soldiers who were passing through saw Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu and falsely concluded that the Lord’s associates, Balabhadra Bhattacarya and others, had killed the Lord with a poison named dhutura and were taking His wealth.
Thus the soldiers arrested them.
However, when Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu regained His senses, His associates were released.
He talked with a person who was supposed to be a holy man in the party.
From the Koran, Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu established devotional service to Krsna.
Thus the leader of the soldiers, named Vijali Khan, surrendered to Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu, and he and his party became devotees of Lord Krsna.
The same village today is known as the village of Pathana Vaisnavas.
After bathing in the Ganges at Soro, Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu arrived at Prayaga at the confluence of three rivers-the Ganges, Yamuna and Sarasvati.
