Text 287] Lord Caitanya Meets Raghunatha dasa Gosvami 333
TRANSLATION
‘Here is a person coming near. He will give me something. This person
gave me something last night. Now another person is coming near. He may
give me something. The person who just passed did not give me anything, but
another person will come, and he will give me something.’ Thus a person in
the renounced order gives up his neutrality and depends on the charity of this
person or that. Thinking in this way, he adopts the occupation of a prostitute.
