<span class="link">[[Vanisource:CC Adi 3.73|CC Adi 3.73, Purport]]: </span><div style="display: inline;" class="purport text"><p style="display: inline;">One who compares the Supreme Personality of Godhead to the demigods is known as a pāṣaṇḍa. Pāṣaṇḍas try to bring the Supreme Lord down to a mundane level. Sometimes they create their own imaginary God or accept an ordinary person as God and advertise him as equal to the Supreme Personality of Godhead.</p>

<div id="CCAdi770_1" class="quote" parent="CC_Adi-lila" book="CC" index="1016" link="CC Adi 7.70" link_text="CC Adi 7.70">
<span class="link">[[Vanisource:CC Adi 7.70|CC Adi 7.70, Purport]]: </span><div style="display: inline;" class="purport text"><p style="display: inline;">Due to renunciation, Vedānta study, meditation and the strict regulative principles of their daily routine, Māyāvādī sannyāsīs are certainly in a position to execute pious activities. Thus Prakāśānanda Sarasvatī, on account of his piety, could understand that Caitanya Mahāprabhu was not an ordinary person but the Supreme Personality of Godhead.</p>
</div>

<span class="link">[[Vanisource:CC Adi 10.43|CC Adi 10.43, Translation and Purport]]: </span><div style="display: inline;" class="trans text"><p style="display: inline;">The twentieth branch of the Caitanya tree was Haridāsa Ṭhākura. His character was wonderful. He used to chant the holy name of Kṛṣṇa 300,000 times a day without fail.</p>
</div>
<div class="purport text"><p>Certainly the chanting of 300,000 holy names of the Lord is wonderful. No ordinary person can chant so many names, nor should one artificially imitate Haridāsa Ṭhākura's behavior.</p>

<span class="link">[[Vanisource:CC Adi 13.42|CC Adi 13.42, Purport]]: </span><div style="display: inline;" class="purport text"><p style="display: inline;">Śrī Bhaktisiddhānta Sarasvatī Ṭhākura comments in this connection that such feelings of separation as Lord Caitanya Mahāprabhu enjoyed from the books of Vidyāpati, Caṇḍīdāsa and Jayadeva are especially reserved for persons like Śrī Rāmānanda Rāya and Svarūpa Dāmodara, who were paramahaṁsas, men of the topmost perfection, because of their advanced spiritual consciousness. Such topics are not to be discussed by ordinary persons imitating the activities of Lord Caitanya Mahāprabhu.</p>

<span class="link">[[Vanisource:CC Adi 17 Summary|CC Adi 17 Summary]]: </span><div style="display: inline;" class="text"><p style="display: inline;">The same Absolute Truth who enjoys as Kṛṣṇa, Śyāmasundara, who plays His flute and dances with the gopīs, sometimes takes birth in a brāhmaṇa family and plays the part of Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu, accepting the renounced order of life. It appears contradictory that the same Kṛṣṇa accepted the ecstasy of the gopīs, and of course this is very difficult for an ordinary person to understand.</p>

<span class="link">[[Vanisource:CC Madhya 1.81|CC Madhya 1.81, Translation]]: </span><div style="display: inline;" class="trans text"><p style="display: inline;">The gopīs spoke thus: "Dear Lord, whose navel is just like a lotus flower, Your lotus feet are the only shelter for those who have fallen into the deep well of material existence. Your feet are worshiped and meditated upon by great mystic yogīs and highly learned philosophers. We wish that these lotus feet may also be awakened within our hearts, although we are only ordinary persons engaged in household affairs."</p>

<span class="link">[[Vanisource:CC Madhya 2 Summary|CC Madhya 2 Summary]]: </span><div style="display: inline;" class="text"><p style="display: inline;">In the Second Chapter of the Madhya-līlā, the author describes the pastimes the Lord performed during the last twelve years of His life. Thus he has also described some of the pastimes of the antya-līlā. Why he has done so is very difficult for an ordinary person to understand.</p>

</div>
<div class="purport text"><p>Śrīla Kavirāja Gosvāmī and one who follows in his footsteps do not have to cater to the public. Their business is simply to satisfy the previous ācāryas and describe the pastimes of the Lord. One who is able to understand can relish this exalted transcendental literature, which is actually not meant for ordinary persons like scholars and literary men.</p>

When an ordinary person touches such prasādam, his mind is purified, and his mind is raised to the status of a pure brāhmaṇa.</p>
