jala-lila kari’ govinda calila dlaya
nija-gana lafia prabhu geld devalaya

SYNONYMS

jala-lila kari’—after finishing the pastimes on the water; govinda—Lord Jagan-
natha in His moving form as Govinda; calila alaya—returned to His place; nija-
gana—His devotees; lafd—taking; prabhu—Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu; gela—
went; deva-dlaya—to the temple.

TRANSLATION

After concluding His pastimes in the water, Lord Govinda returned to His
residence. Then Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu went to the temple, taking all His
devotees with Him.

PURPORT

The Deity referred to herein as Govinda is the vijaya-vigraha in the temple of
Jagannatha. When there is a need to take Jagannatha somewhere, the vijaya-
vigraha is taken because the body of Jagannatha is very heavy. The vijaya-vigraha
in the Jagannatha temple is known as Govinda. For the pastimes in the Narendra-
sarovara, the vijaya-vigraha was carried there instead of Lord Jagannatha.
