Absorbed in Lord Kṛṣṇa’s Pastimes

“Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu said, “Who has brought Me here from Govardhana Hill? I was seeing Lord Kṛṣṇa’s pastimes, but now I cannot see them.”

Śrīla Prabhupāda · Śrī Caitanya Caritamrta Antya 14.105, translation

What the purport teaches

  • Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu asked who had brought Him there from Govardhana Hill.
  • He said that He had been seeing Lord Kṛṣṇa’s pastimes.
  • He could no longer see those pastimes. His words explain why He had been looking here and there.
