TEXT 71

tāṅre upekṣiyā kaila śīghra gamana

ke bujhite pāre mahāprabhura citta-mana

SYNONYMS

tāṅre — unto Sārvabhauma Bhaṭṭācārya; upekṣiyā — not paying serious attention; kaila — did; śīghra — very fast; gamana — walking; ke — who; bujhite — to understand; pāre — is able; mahāprabhura — of Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu; citta-mana — the mind and intention.

TRANSLATION

Although Sārvabhauma Bhaṭṭācārya fainted, Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu did not take notice of him. Rather, He left quickly. Who can understand the mind and intention of Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu?

PURPORT

It was naturally expected that when Sārvabhauma Bhaṭṭācārya fainted and fell to the ground Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu would have taken care of him and waited for him to regain consciousness, but He did not do so. Rather, Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu immediately started on His tour. It is therefore very difficult to understand the activities of a transcendental person. Sometimes they may seem rather odd, but a transcendental personality remains in his position, unaffected by material considerations.
