Śrī Caitanya Caritamrta · Text Antya 13.110

অন্তরে মুমুক্ষু তেঁহো, বিদ্যা-গর্ববান্ ।

সর্বচিত্ত-জ্ঞাতা প্রভু — সর্বজ্ঞ ভগবান্ ॥ ১১০ ॥

antare mumukṣu teṅho, vidyā-garvavān

sarva-citta-jñātā prabhu — sarvajña bhagavān

Translation

Within his heart, Rāmadāsa Viśvāsa was an impersonalist who desired to merge into the existence of the Lord, and he was very proud of his learning. Since Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu is the omniscient Supreme Personality of Godhead, He can understand the heart of everyone, and thus He knew all these things.
