Trembling, perspiration, jubilant tears, joy and humility were among the many states visible in Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu’s body.
The Bhakti-rasāmṛta-sindhu explains jāḍya as loss of memory caused by severe shock due to separation from the beloved.
In that state, one loses concern for loss and gain, hearing and seeing, and all other considerations. The purport calls this the preliminary appearance of illusion.
