Indeed, His entire body, which is very nicely constituted, is like molten gold.

Sandalwood pulp is smeared all over His body.

He will take the fourth order of spiritual life (sannyasa) and will be very self-controlled.

He will be distinguished from Mayavadi sannyasis in that He will be fixed in devotional service and will spread the sankirtana movement.’ ”
