Pastimes of the Lord in His Youth
413
Caitanya Mahāprabhu appeared as a devotee, He is none other than the son of Nanda Mahārāja. Similarly, although Śrī Nityānanda Prabhu appeared as Lord Caitanya's assistant, He is none other than Baladeva, the carrier of the plow. Advaita Ācārya is the incarnation of Sadāśiva from the spiritual world. All the devotees headed by Śrīvāsa Thākura are His marginal energy, whereas the devotees headed by Gadādhara Paṇḍita are manifestations of His internal potency.
Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu, Advaita Prabhu and Nityānanda Prabhu all belong to the  viṣṇu-tattva  category. Because Lord Caitanya is an ocean of mercy, He is addressed as  mahāprabhu , whereas Nityānanda and Advaita, being two great personalities who assist Lord Caitanya, are addressed as  prabhu . Thus there are two  prabhus  and one  mahāprabhu . Gadādhara Gosvāmī is a representative of a perfect  brāhmaṇa  spiritual master. Śrīvāsa Thākura represents a perfect  brāhmaṇa  devotee. These five are known as the Pañca-tattva.
