TEXT 14
সেই জীবে নিজ-ভক্তি করেন প্রকাশে । তাহার দর্শনে ‘বৈষ্ণব’ হয় সর্বদেশে ॥ ১৪ ॥
sei jīve nija-bhakti karena prakāśe tāhāra darśane ‘vaiṣṇava’ haya sarva-deśe
SYNONYMS
sei jīve —in that living being;  nija-bhakti —His own devotion;  karena prakāśe —manifests directly;  tāhāra darśane —by seeing such an empowered devotee;  vaiṣṇava —devotees of Kṛṣṇa;  haya —become;  sarva-deśe —in all other countries.
TRANSLATION
Thus He empowered living beings [His pure devotees] by manifesting in them so much of His own devotion that people in all other countries became devotees by seeing them.
PURPORT
As stated in  Caitanya-caritāmṛta  (Antya 7.11):
kali-kālera dharma — kṛṣṇa-nāma-saṅkīrtana   kṛṣṇa-śakti vinā nahe tāra pravartana
Unless one is empowered by the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu, one cannot spread the holy names of the Hare Kṛṣṇa  mahā-mantra  throughout the world. Persons who do so are empowered. Therefore they are sometimes called  āveśa-avatāras  or incarnations, for they are endowed with the power of Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu.
