Cmp 57. Mahendra Puri's Appearance Day



CHAITANYA MAHAPRABHU

The Lord stayed at Shantipura,
In the house of Advaita Acharya,
Who celebrated appearance day
Of Mahendra Puri spiritually.

Madhava Puri was in meditation,
On Lord Krishna as a daily routine,
Not knowing what he was doing,
At any place, while walking.

Suddenly he would start
Dancing in the street,
And chant the holy name,
Not minding the place or time.

He was very much upset
And gave a lot of thought
How to render services
To the suffering mass.

He approached Sanyasis,
Learned scholars, Yogis,
But didn't find the ways
For devotional services.

'Lord Krishna must appear,
To make everything clear,
As He can only alleviate,
Anytime, the suffering lot.'

Like this, when he was thinking
Lord Chaitanya was growing
In the path of devotional service
Like Lord Krishna's appearance.

That day's event went well.
The Lord, in front of all,
Glorified Advaita Acharya
For his devotion to Lord Krishna.

After the singing and dancing
It was time for meals serving
And the devotees enjoyed
The food that was served.

Mother Shachi prepared food
That was very tasty and good,
The Lord Chaitanya's presence
Added to the function, His grace.
