Where Have You Seen Kṛṣṇa Directly?
“Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu then asked them, “Where have you seen Kṛṣṇa directly?””
What the purport teaches
- Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu asks the people where they have seen Kṛṣṇa directly.
- They reply by addressing Him as a sannyāsī, a renunciant.
- Because He is a sannyāsī, they call Him a moving Nārāyaṇa, or jaṅgama-nārāyaṇa.
