Remembering Earlier Narrations Without Repeating Them
“Those narrations tell how Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu met the brothers Rūpa and Sanātana and how Nṛsiṁhānanda decorated the road. I have already described these in an earlier synopsis of this book; therefore I will not repeat the narrations here.”
What the purport teaches
- The earlier narrations tell how Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu met the brothers Rūpa and Sanātana.
- They also tell how Nṛsiṁhānanda decorated the road.
- The author has already described these events in an earlier synopsis of the book. He therefore does not repeat the narrations here.
