Separation from Kṛṣṇa Doubles in Intensity

“From that day on, Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu’s emotional state changed markedly; His feelings of separation from Kṛṣṇa doubled in intensity.”

Śrīla Prabhupāda · Śrī Caitanya Caritamrta Antya 19.30, translation

What the purport teaches

  • His feelings of separation from Kṛṣṇa double in intensity.
  • This change follows the devotees’ astonishment and Svarūpa Dāmodara’s sadness described in the preceding verse.
