The lord instructs Santiana Cosvami to the start the season.

mined to serve the Lord, the Lord is always prepared to help him ( dadāmi buddhi-yogaṁ taṁ yena mām upayānti te ). Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu is telling Sanātana Gosvāmī how merciful the Lord is. Sanātana Gosvāmī was a minister in the service of Nawab Hussain Shah. He was always mixing with people materially inclined, particularly with Mohammedans, meat-eaters. Although he was in intimate touch with them, by Kṛṣṇa’s mercy he came to find such association distasteful. Therefore he left them. As stated by Śrīnivāsa Ācārya:  tyaktvā tūrṇam aśeṣa-maṇ-ḍala-pati-śreṇīṁ sadā tucchavat . Kṛṣṇa enlightened Sanātana Gosvāmī in such a way that he was able to give up his exalted post as minister. Thinking his material position insignificant, Sanātana was prepared to become a mendicant. Appreciating the activities of Sanātana Gosvāmī, Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu praised his action and thanked Krsna for His mercy upon him.
