Not claiming credit for devotional speech
“There is one other thing Rāmānanda Rāya said to me: ‘Do not consider me the speaker in these talks about Kṛṣṇa.
What the purport teaches
- Pradyumna Miśra recalled another statement made by Rāmānanda Rāya.
- Rāmānanda Rāya had told him not to consider him the speaker in these talks about Kṛṣṇa.
- His explanation directed credit away from himself and toward Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu, whom he identified as the actual speaker.
