PLATE TWO
“There was also one  brāhmaṇa  named Vāsudeva, who was a great person but was suffering from leprosy. Although suffering from leprosy, Vāsudeva was enlightened. When he came to Kūrma’s house to see Caitanya Mahāprabhu, he was informed that the Lord had already left. The leper then fell to the ground unconscious. When Vāsudeva, the leper  brāhmaṇa , was lamenting due to not being able to see Caitanya Mahāprabhu, the Lord immediately returned to that spot and embraced him. When Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu touched him, both the leprosy and his distress went to a distant place. Indeed, Vāsudeva’s body became very beautiful, to his great happiness.” (pp. 69-71)
