A
- A sannyasi is strictly forbidden to see the visayis, the materialistic people. But Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu, out of His boundless and causeless mercy, could show favor to anyone, regardless of birth and position
- After filling a pot with vegetables, Advaita Acarya requested Them to eat more, and Caitanya Mahaprabhu said, "How much more can I go on eating"
- Although He (Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu) is the Supreme Personality of Godhead, He laments - How can I act alone? How can I alone pick the fruit and distribute it all over the world
- Although I am acting as a gardener, I also want to be the tree, for thus I can bestow benefit upon all
- Although there was very little water, Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu was omniscient and could understand that formerly these two ponds were called Sri Radha-kunda and Syama-kunda. In this way Radha-kunda and Syama-kunda were discovered
B
- Because Lord Caitanya could not meet the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Krsna, His mind burned. He began to ask Krsna about the means by which He could reach Him
- Being omniscient, Lord Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu could understand that Vallabha Bhatta's explanations of Krsna's name and Srimad-Bhagavatam were useless. Therefore He did not care about them
- Bhattacarya began to praise the Lord and said, "Your influence and temperature were so great that You could melt away a piece of iron like me"
- By your (Rupa and Sanatana's) letters, I could understand your heart. Therefore, in order to teach you, I sent you one verse, which reads as follows
- By Your inconceivable energy, You can do whatever You like, and whatever You make Me do, I do without restriction
C
- Caitanya Mahaprabhu was a sannyasi; He left home and everything else. He could certainly not be induced by any mundane lusty desires
- Caitanya replied, I can find no one else in the world who can realize the transcendental loving reciprocation between Radha & Krsna. You (Ramananda Raya) are asking Me to stay here for ten days, but I feel like remaining with you for the rest of My life
- Caitanya replied: I do not understand why Sarvabhauma Bhattacarya so much appreciated My explanation. As far as I am concerned, I don't even remember what I said to him. because you (Sanatana) are asking Me, I shall try to explain whatever I can remember
- Caitanya said to Ramananda Raya, Please come to Jagannatha Puri, My headquarters, and we will remain together for the rest of our lives. Thus I can pass My remaining days in understanding Krsna and Radha by your association
- Certainly I have not studied the art of literary embellishments. But I have heard about it from higher circles, and thus I can review this verse and find in it many faults and many good qualities
H
- He (Caitanya Mahaprabhu) can say anything. He can manufacture anything. No, that He does not do. He does not violate the principle
- How is that, that You (Caitanya Mahaprabhu) can repeat? How is that? - Oh, that is grace of Mother Sarasvati. Just like you (Kesava Kasmiri) can compose a hundred verses within a few minutes, I can, whatever you say, I can remember immediately
I
- I am the only gardener. How many places can I go? How many fruits can I pick and distribute?
- I am the only gardener. If I do not distribute these fruits, what shall I do with them? How many fruits can I alone eat?
- If by some means I can assemble all the sannyasis together, they will certainly become His devotees after seeing His personal characteristics
- If Caitanya Mahaprabhu is pleased, He can give krsna-prema, love of Krsna, to anyone, regardless of that person's qualification. If a person is giving charity, he can select anyone to take it
- If Caitanya Mahaprabhu is pleased, then He can give krsna-prema, love of Krsna, to anyone, doesn't matter what is his qualification. He gives
- If He (Lord Caitanya) wants, by His mercy He can convert even a yavana, an unclean follower of non-Vedic principles, into a perfectly well behaved gentleman. This is actually happening in our propagation of the Krsna consciousness movement
- If He again performs such an atrocious act, certainly we shall retaliate and strike Him in turn. What kind of important person is He, that He can check us in this way?
- It is certainly because of My offense that Your staff was broken. Now You can punish Me on this account as You think proper
K
- Kesava Kasmiri first depreciated the Lord’s position. Because Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu was to the champion a student of grammar, how could He dare criticize a great poet like him? Lord Caitanya, therefore, criticized the poet in a different way
- Krsna is known as Yogesvara, the master of all mystic powers. Sri Krsna Caitanya Mahaprabhu is Lord Krsna Himself; therefore He can exhibit any mystic power
L
- Lord Caitanya Mahaprabhu replied to the champion, Kesava Kasmiri, that just as he was greatly proud of being a favorite devotee of mother Sarasvati, so someone else, like Caitanya Mahaprabhu Himself, being favored by the SPG, could become a sruti-dhara
- Lord Caitanya Mahaprabhu's mercy is there for everyone. He can accept everyone. One who is sinful, that is not disqualification. Because in this age, Kali-yuga, more or less, everyone is sinful
- Lord Caitanya thought, "My name is Visvambhara, 'one who maintains the entire universe.' Its meaning will be actualized if I can fill the whole universe with love of Godhead"
M
- My dear Krsna, only You and I know the strength of Your beautiful features and, because of them, My unsteadiness. Now, this is My position; I do not know what to do or where to go. Where can I find You? I am asking You to give directions
- My Lord, You are certainly able to do whatever You like, and You are indeed merciful. If You so desire, You can very easily do whatever You want
N
- Not only He (Caitanya Mahaprabhu) was a very learned scholar. . . He was young man, twenty, twenty-two years, but He was so popular that He could call 100,000 people at once to start this civil disobedience, His social position
- Now that I can understand this philosophy, no more shall I eat dirt. Whenever I am hungry I shall suck your breast and drink your breast milk
O

T

- The Bhattacarya said, "Both the food and the sitting place are the Lord's mercy. If You can eat the remnants of the food, what is the offense in Your sitting in this place"
- The brahmana told him, "Because He is the Lord (isvara), undoubtedly He can give you proper direction

- The Lord (Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu) could understand that it was because of Damodara Pandita’s simplicity that he impudently dared criticize Him. Nevertheless, such behavior by a devotee is not very good
- The Lord can deliver anyone and everyone, even though one may have fallen from the injunctions of revealed scriptures. This is Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu's special mercy

- The nectarean drops of Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu's pastimes can satisfy the senses of everyone who hears them
