A full account would fill a volume

“To explain fully all those verses and all the transformations that took place in the Lord’s body would require a very large volume.”

Śrīla Prabhupāda · Śrī Caitanya Caritamrta Antya 18.10, translation

What the purport teaches

  • The Lord’s explanations of the verses were extensive.
  • Transformations also took place in the Lord’s body.
  • Fully explaining both the verses and these bodily transformations would require a very large volume.
