Advaita Acarya jokingly said, "My dear Nityananda, I invited You, and indeed I have received the results.

You have no fixed caste or dynasty.

By nature You are a madman.

PURPORT

The words sahaje pagala (“by nature a madman”) indicate that Nityananda Prabhu was transcendentally situated on the paramahamsa stage.

Because He always remembered Radha-Krsna and Their service, this was transcendental madness.

Sri Advaita Acarya was pointing out this fact.
