satya ei hetu, kintu eho bahiranga
ara eka hetu, Suna, Gche antaranga
SYNONYMS
satya—true; e/—this; hetu—reason; kintu—but; eho—this; bahiranga—external; dra—
another; eka—one; hetu—reason; Suna—please hear; Gche—is; antarafga—internal.
TRANSLATION
Although this is true, this is but the external reason for the Lord’s incarnation.
Please hear one other reason—the confidential reason—for the Lord’s appearance.
PURPORT
In the Third Chapter, fourth verse, it has been clearly said that Lord Caitanya
appeared to distribute love of Krsna and the chanting of His transcendental holy
name, Hare Krsna. That was the secondary purpose of Lord Caitanya’s appearance.
The real reason is different, as we shall see in this chapter.
