TRANSLATION
Śrī Kṛṣṇa Caitanya Mahāprabhu and His associates of the Pañca-tattva distributed the holy name of the Lord to invoke love of Godhead throughout the universe, and thus the entire universe was thankful.
PURPORT
Here it is said that Lord Caitanya made the entire universe thankful to Him for propagating the  saṅkīrtana  movement with His associates. Lord Caitanya Mahāprabhu has already sanctified the entire universe by His presence 500 years ago, and therefore anyone who attempts to serve Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu sincerely by following in His footsteps and following the instructions of the  ācāryas  will successfully be able to preach the holy names of the Hare Kṛṣṇa  mahā-mantra  all over the universe. There are some foolish critics who say that Europeans and Americans cannot be offered  sannyāsa , but here we find that Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu wanted to preach the  saṅkīrtana  movement all over the universe. For preaching work,  sannyāsīs  are essential. These critics think that only Indians or Hindus should be offered  sannyāsa  to preach, but their knowledge is practically nil. Without  sannyāsīs , the preaching work will be impeded. Therefore, under the instruction of Lord Caitanya and with the blessings of His associates, there should be no discrimination in this matter, but people in all parts of the world should be trained to preach and given  sannyāsa  so
