CHAITANYA MAHAPRABHU
One day, Lord Chaitanya was
In Shrivasa Pundit's house.
He advised Pundit to dispose
Of Nityananda from his house.
He said, "Who really he's?
Where-from he comes?
What's his family background?
Why are you, with him, so kind? "
"He's an avadhuta, a free man.
And will spoil your reputation.
I warn you not to be lenient
Like this with such a man."
Pundit replied, "Oh My Lord,
You're the Supreme Lord
I'm your servant to listen,
I can't send out a nice person."
"Even if he's a drunkard,
Or his meat-eating is bad,
Or I had lost my reputation,
I'll not send this person."
"I'll serve His lotus feet,
As well as Your lotus feet,
Why're you testing me?
Are you serious with me? "
The Lord appreciated,
Shrivasa Pundit's stand,
And blessed him well
Also his family as well.
After this, the Lord went home.
Nityananda spent his time
Roaming around the Town
Navadvipa freely by then.
Shachimata was affectionate
When her feet, Nityananda caught.
He played with her as a boy
She too took him as a toy.
His mother's worry was,
Her younger son always,
In her house, should remain,
Unlike her deserted eldest son.
