Śrī-Caitanya-caritāmṛta
[Ādi-līlā, Ch. 17]
PURPORT
According to the system of Vedic society, whenever an unknown  sannyāsī  comes to a village or town, someone must invite him to take  prasāda  in his home.  Sannyāsīs  generally take  prasāda  in the house of a  brāhmaṇa  because the  brāhmaṇa  worships the Lord Nārāyaṇa  śilā , or  śālagrāma-śilā , and therefore there is  prasāda  that the  sannyāsī  may take. Keśava Bhāratī accepted the invitation of Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu. Thus the Lord had a good opportunity to explain His desire to take  sannyāsa  from him.
