70 Sri Caitanya-caritamrta [Antya-lila, Ch. 7

PURPORT

Joking with Rukminidevi in Dvaraka, Krsna once advised her to accept another
husband because He thought Himself unfit for her. Rukminidevi, however, unable
to understand His joking words, took them very seriously and immediately fell to
the ground in fear of separation from Him. In the pastimes of Lord Sri Caitanya
Mahdaprabhu, Jagadananda Pandita was always in disagreement with the Lord like
Satyabhama, whereas Gadadhara Pandita was always awed by the Lord’s opu-
lence and was therefore submissive to the Lord under all circumstances.
