PURPORT

Sarvabhauma Bhattacarya considered Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu a very humble and meek person because although Caitanya Mahaprabhu was a sannyasi, He still retained His brahmacari name.

The Lord took sannyasa from Kesava Bharati in the Bharati sampradaya, in which the brahmacaris (the assistants of the sannyasis) are named “Caitanya.” Even after accepting sannyasa, Caitanya Mahaprabhu retained the name “Caitanya,” meaning a humble servant of a sannyasi.

Sarvabhauma Bhattacarya appreciated this very much.
