TRANSLATION
I have thus described in codes the advent of Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu, who appeared as the son of mother Śacī, exactly as Kṛṣṇa appeared as the son of mother Yaśodā.
PURPORT
Śrīla Narottama dāsa Thākura confirms this statement that now Lord Kṛṣṇa, the son of mother Yaśodā, has appeared again as Lord Caitanya Mahāprabhu, becoming the son of mother Śacī ( vrajendra-nandana yei, śacī-suta haila sei ). The son of Śacī is none other than the son of mother Yaśodā and Nanda Mahārāja, and Nityānanda Prabhu is the same Balarāma ( balarāma ha-ila nitāi ).
