SYNONYMS
kavi kahe—the poet said; jagannatha—Lord Jagannatha; sundara-sarira—very
beautiful body; caitanya-gosafi—Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu; sariri—possessor of
the body; mahd-dhira—very grave.
TRANSLATION
The poet said, “Lord Jagannatha is a most beautiful body, and Sri Caitanya
Mahaprabhu, who is exceptionally grave, is the owner of that body.
PURPORT
Sariri refers to a person who owns the arira, or body. As stated in Bhagavad-
gita:
dehino ’smin yatha dehe
kaumaéram yauvanam jara
tathd dehantara-praptir
dhiras tatra na muhyati
“As the embodied soul continually passes, in this body, from boyhood to youth to
old age, the soul similarly passes into another body at death. The self-realized soul
is not bewildered by such a change.” (Bg. 2.13) For the ordinary living being in
material existence there is a division or distinction between the body and the
owner of the body. In spiritual existence, however, there is no such distinction, for
the body is the owner himself and the owner is the body itself. In spiritual exis-
tence, everything must be spiritual. Therefore there is no distinction between the
body and its owner.
