Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu declared Himself a strict sannyāsī. A sannyāsī is not supposed to take help from anyone. Retaining a masseur to give Him massages would indicate His dependence on others. Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu wanted to follow very strictly the principle of not accepting anyone’s help for His bodily comfort.
Have I taken sannyasa for such happiness? Accepting this oil would bring My ruination, and all of you would laugh
