318 Sri-Caitanya-carita mrta
TRANSLATION
| am struck with wonder when I hear about the devotional service he executed.
| accept Srila Rupa Gosvami and Raghunatha dasa Gosvami as my guides.
PURPORT
Srila Krsnadasa Kaviraja Gosvami accepted Raghunatha dasa Gosvami as his
special guide. Therefore at the end of every chapter he says, Sri-riijpa-raghundatha-
pade yara asa caitanya-caritamrta kahe krsnadasa. Sometimes it is misunderstood
that by using the word raghundatha he wanted to offer his respectful obeisances to
Raghunatha Bhatta Gosvami, for it is sometimes stated that Raghunatha Bhatta
Gosvami was his initiator spiritual master. Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati Gosvami
does not approve of this statement; he does not accept Raghunatha Bhatta Gosvami
as the spiritual master of Srila Krsnadasa Kaviraja Gosvami.
