Live Caitanya Caritamrta · CC Madhya 24.9
Understanding May Unfold Through Association
“Generally by Myself I cannot give an explanation, but by the strength of your association something may manifest itself.
What the purport teaches
- The speaker humbly says that generally He cannot give an explanation by Himself.
- He credits the strength of His listener’s association with helping an explanation manifest.
- The words “something may manifest itself” express openness rather than a claim of personal ability.
