TEXT 28

“King Bhī ṣ maka wanted to give his daughter, Rukmiṇ ī, in charity to Kṛ ṣ ṇ a, but Rukmī, his eldest son, objected. Therefore he could not carry out his decision. ”

tasya pancā bhavan putrā ḥ kanyaikā ca varā nanā

[“Ś rī Bā darā yaṇ i said: There was a king named Bhī ṣ maka, the powerful ruler of Vidarbha. He had five sons and one daughter of lovely countenance. ”] Bhag. 10. 52. 21

[This verse was there in the original edition of the Purp.; later it was replaced by the next one. Both are quoted in the Anubh. , and then there is one more. ]

bandhū nā m icchatā ṁ dā tuṁ kṛ ṣ ṇ ā ya bhaginī ṁ nṛ pa

tato nivā rya kṛ ṣ ṇ a-dviḍ rukmī caidyam amanyata

TEXT 58

eta ś uni’ tā ṅ ra putra vā kya-chala pā ñ ā

pragalbha ha-iyā kahe sammukhe ā siñ ā

… vā kya-chala—for jugglery of words; …

When the elderly brā hmaṇ a’s son heard this, he took the opportunity to juggle some words. Becoming very impudent, he stood before the assembly and spoke as follows.

Anubh.: If a speaker says some words with a certain meaning but his opponent does not accept the meaning of these words and on the false basis of having imagined a contrary meaning he finds faults, in such a case a jugglery (chala) takes place.

TEXT 86

Hearing the emphatic statement of the younger brā hmaṇ a, some atheists in the meeting began to cut jokes. However, someone else said, “After all, the Lord is merciful, and if He likes, He can come. ”

Anubh.: They were atheists because they maintained a mundane conception of the Deity, not believing in Krsna’s being the Supreme Lord who is affectionate to His devotees.

TEXT 140

[In his book Caitanya-bhā gavata] Ś rī la Vṛ ndā vana dā sa Ṭ hā kura has very vividly described the places visited by the Lord on the way to Bhuvaneś vara.

Purp.: In his book Caitanya-bhā gavata, Antya-khaṇ ḍ a, Ś rī la Vṛ ndā vana dā sa Ṭ hā kura has very nicely described the Lord’s journey en route to Kaṭ aka (Cuttak). …

Anubh.: [see Purp. to text 141]

tobe prabhu ailen sri-bhuvanesvara

gupta-kasi bas yatha koren sankara

‘bindu-sarovara’ siva srjila apani

‘siva-priya-sarovara’ jani’ sri-caitanya

snan kori’ visese korila ati dhanya

[“Ś rī Caitanya then came to Bhuvaneś vara. This city is actually the hidden Kā ś ī, the residence of Lord Ś iva, Ś rī Ś aṅ kara. Previously, Lord Ś iva had collected a drop of the waters from all the different holy places and brought them here to Bhuvaneś vara to form the lake known as Bindu-sarovara. Ś rī Caitanya knew the significance of the lake as being most dear to Lord Ś iva; thus, He took His bath in the lake and further increased its auspiciousness. ” CB Antya 2. 307-309] …

TEXT 145

All the devotees became ecstatic in the association of Lord Caitanya, and thus absorbed in love of God, they were dancing and singing while going along the main road.

Anubh.: The main road (raja-marga) – the road by which pilgrims from Bengal were coming to Purusottama-ksetra to take darsan of Lord Jagannatha.

TEXT 146

Ś rī Caitanya Mahā prabhu laughed, cried, danced and made many ecstatic vibrations and sounds. Although the temple was only six miles away, to Him the distance seemed thousands of miles.

Purp.: When Ś rī Caitanya Mahā prabhu was in ecstasy, He considered one moment to last as long as twelve years. After seeing the Jagannā tha temple from a distant place, the Lord became so ecstatic that He considered the six-mile path many thousands of miles long.

Anubh.: When Ś rī Caitanya Mahā prabhu saw the Jagannā tha temple from a distance of three krosas, He felt an intense eagerness and anxiety to see the Lord and experienced the ecstatic transformations (sā ttvika vikā ra) due to excessive separation. Just as a short moment is perceived as a millenium in severe separation, just as the gopis were criticizing the arrangement of having the eyelids, in the same way Lord Caitanya considered the three krosas to be a distance of thousands of yojanas.
