318 Sr Caitanya-caritamrta {Adi-lila, C h. 17
PURPORT
lt appears that the astrologer not only was a knower of past, present and future
through astrological calculation, but was a great meditator as well. Therefore he
was a great devotee and could see Lord Caitanya Mahaprabhu to be the same per-
sonality as Krsna. He was puzzled, however, about whether Krsna and Sri Caitanya
Mahaprabhu were actually the same person.

PURPORT
$rekesna-caitanya radha-krsua nahe anya: in the vision of a perfect devotee, Lord
Caitanya Mahaprabhu is a combination of Radha and Kyspa. One who sees Lord
Caitanya to be different from Krsna is under the illusory energy of the Lord. It
appears that the astrologer was already an advanced devotee, and when he came into
the presence of the Supreme Lord Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu, he became perfectly
self-realized and could see that the Supreme Personality of Godhead Krsna and Sri
Caitanya Mahaprabhu are one and the same Supreme Person.
