Because India was open. "Yes, you are guest. Come on. You learn here." Lord Jesus Christ also went there to learn. So they kept open everything. Para-upakāra. Still, Caitanya Mahāprabhu said . . . whatever is done is done. Caitanya Mahāprabhu is speaking when it was already conquered by the Muhammadans, the Pathans, but still He said, "Those who have taken birth in India, they must do this para-upakāra, do good to others."

He never says: "Don't allow anyone." The Muhammadans have come. He did not care whether Muhammadans comes or Christians come. He knew that "Indian culture is so strong, these rascal cannot do anything. They will come here and plunder for some years and then go away. That's all. So let them do that. But your culture, Indian culture, is so great that you should distribute." Bhārata-bhūmite manuṣya-janma haila yāra ([[vanisource:CC Adi 9.41|CC Adi 9.41]]): "Anyone who has taken birth in India, he should first of all make his life successful and distribute this knowledge all over the world." That is Caitanya Mahāprabhu's mission. We are engaged in that mission.
