Caitanya Mahāprabhu embracing me. Oh I shall kill myself. I shall commit suicide." So he consulted, not for suicide, but leaving the place. So when he was advised, "Yes, you can leave the place," so Caitanya Mahāprabhu, heard when, He heard this news that, "Jagadānanda has advised Sanātana Gosvāmī to leave the place," He became very angry, that "You have the audacity to advise Sanātana Gosvāmī, nonsense?" He was so respectful to Sanātana Gosvāmī. The same Sanātana Gosvāmī approached Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu, asking Him the question, "What I am? Why I am put into these threefold miserable condition of life?" So this is our position. We may be very great man in the estimation of our friends and countrymen, but everyone is subjected to the miserable condition of life.

Prabhupāda: Sanātana Gosvāmī became infected with itches all over the body. And it is it was, what is called, bleeding itches. Itches are two kinds: dry, and sometimes oozing water. What is called?

Devotee: Pus. Pus.

Prabhupāda: Not pus.

Devotee: Weeping.

Prabhupāda: Weeping. Yes. The technical name is weeping. Dry and weeping. So it was weeping itches. And whenever he would go to see Caitanya Mahāprabhu, immediately Caitanya Mahāprabhu embrace him, and the weeping secretion will touch the body of Caitanya Mahāprabhu. So he thought that, "I am suffering from this disease. Caitanya Mahāprabhu embracing me. Oh I shall kill myself. I shall commit suicide." So he consulted, not for suicide, but leaving the place. So when he was advised, "Yes, you can leave the place," so Caitanya Mahāprabhu, heard when, He heard this news that, "Jagadānanda has advised Sanātana Gosvāmī to leave the place," He became very angry, that "You have the audacity to advise Sanātana Gosvāmī, nonsense?" He was so respectful to Sanātana Gosvāmī. The same Sanātana Gosvāmī approached Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu, asking Him the question, "What I am? Why I am put into these threefold miserable condition of life?"

So this is our position. We may be very great man in the estimation of our friends and countrymen, but everyone is subjected to the miserable condition of life. They cannot make any solution. That is not possible. They have made a solution, big, big learned scholars, just that Mr. Kotovsky said: "Swāmījī, after death, there is no life. Everything is finished."
