Šri Caitanya-caritāmrta
[[Madhya-lilā. Ch. 8]
be futile. It doesn't matter whether one is a  prākṛta-sahajiyā , a mundane opportunist or a scholar; one's labor to understand these topics by mundane means will ultimately be frustrated. One therefore has to give up all mundane attempts and try to become a pure devotee of Lord Viṣṇu. When a devotee follows the regulative principles, the truth of these talks will be revealed to him. This is confirmed:
ataḥ śrī-kṛṣṇa-nāmādi 
    na bhaved grāhyam indriyaiḥ 
    sevonmukhe hi jihvādau 
    svayam eva sphuraty adaḥ 
    (Bhakti-rasāmṛta-sindhu, 1.2.109)
One cannot understand the holy name of the Lord, His pastimes, form, qualities, and entourage by blunt material senses. However, when the senses are purified by the constant rendering of service, the spiritual truth of the pastimes of Rādhā and Kṛṣṇa are revealed. As confirmed in the  Muṇḍaka Upaniṣad :  yam evaiṣa vṛṇute tena labhyas . Only one who is favored by the Supreme Personality of Godhead can understand the transcendental features of Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu.
