Śrī Caitanya-caritāmṛta
[Madhya-līlā, Ch. 1]
tumi —you are so fortunate;  pāile gosāñi —you have gotten the shelter of the lotus feet of Lord Caitanya Mahāprabhu.
TRANSLATION
In accordance with the instructions of Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu, the two brothers, Rūpa and Sanātana, immediately touched the lotus feet of these Vaiṣṇavas, who all became very happy and congratulated the two brothers for having received the mercy of the Lord.
PURPORT
This behavior is indicative of real Vaiṣṇavas. When they saw that Rūpa and Sanātana were fortunate enough to receive the mercy of the Lord, they were so pleased that they all congratulated the two brothers. A jealous person in the dress of a Vaiṣṇava is not at all happy to see the success of another Vaiṣṇava in receiving the Lord's mercy. Unfortunately in this age of Kali there are many mundane persons in the dress of Vaiṣṇavas, and Śrīla Bhaktivinoda Thākura has described them as disciples of Kali. He says,  kali-celā . He indicates that there is another Vaiṣṇava, a pseudo-Vaiṣṇava with  tilaka  on his nose and  kunti  beads around his neck. Such a pseudo-Vaiṣṇava associates with money and women and is jealous of successful Vaiṣṇavas. Although passing for a Vaiṣṇava, his only business is earning money in the dress of a Vaiṣṇava. Bhaktivinoda Thākura therefore says that such a pseudo-Vaiṣṇava is not a Vaiṣṇava at all but a disciple of Kali-yuga. A disciple of Kali cannot become an  ācārya  by the decision of some high court. Mundane votes have no jurisdiction to elect a Vaiṣṇava  ācārya . A Vaiṣṇava  ācārya  is self-effulgent, and there is no need for any court judgment. A false  ācārya  may try to override a Vaiṣṇava by a high-court decision, but Bhaktivinoda Thākura says that he is nothing but a disciple of Kali-yuga.
