in the company of Lord Caitanya; dui sthdne—in two places; prabhu-seva—service

TRANSLATION

I have especially mentioned al! these devotees because they accompanied Lord
Caitanya Mahaprabhu in Bengal and Orissa and served Him in many ways.

PURPORT

Most of the devotees of Lord Caitanya lived in Bengal and Orissa. Thus they are
celebrated as oriyas and gaudiyas. At present, however, by the grace of Lord
Caitanya Mahaprabhu, His cult is being propagated all over the world, and it is
most probable that in the future history of Lord Caitanya’s movement, Europeans,
Americans, Canadians, Australians, South Americans, Asians and people from all
over the world will be celebrated as devotees of Lord Caitanya. The International
Society for Krishna Consciousness has already constructed a big temple at Mayapur,
Navadvipa, which is being visited by devotees from all parts of the world, as fore-
told by Lord Caitanya Mahaprabhu and anticipated by Sri Bhaktivinoda Thakura.
