Śrī Caitanya Caritamrta · Text Antya 6.179
সেই-সঙ্গে রঘুনাথ গেল পলাঞা ।
দশ জন যাহ, তারে আনহ ধরিয়া ।।” ১৭৯ ॥ ১৭৯ ॥
sei-saṅge raghunātha gela palāñā
daśa jana yāha, tāre ānaha dhariyā”

Read this verse on Vedabase.ioThis verse has no purport; its meaning is explained by the verses around it.
Three study points drawn from the translation and purport.
Raghunātha dāsa’s father believed that his son had fled with the devotees.
He ordered ten men to go immediately, catch Raghunātha dāsa, and bring him back.
The later reply from Śivānanda Sena shows that Raghunātha dāsa had not joined that group.
Longing fulfilled. Raghunātha’s sustained desire for the Lord culminates in arrival, shelter, and renunciation.

Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu entrusted Raghunātha dāsa Gosvāmī to Svarūpa Dāmodara Gosvāmī. Therefore another name for Raghunātha dāsa Gosvāmī is Svarūpera Raghu, or the Raghunātha of Svarūpa Dāmodara.Read the whole chapter summaryBack to this verse in Antya 6
