SYNONYMS

mukundara mataéra—of the mother of Mukunda; nama—name; suni’—hearing;
prabhu—Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu; sankoca haila—felt some hesitation;
tathapi—still; tahara—of Paramesvara; prite—out of affection; kichu—anything;
na balila—did not say.

TRANSLATION

Hearing the name of Mukundara Mata, Lord Caitanya hesitated, but because
of affection for Paramesvara, He did not say anything.

PURPORT

A sannyasi is restricted from even hearing a woman's name, and Sri Caitanya
Mahdaprabhu conducted Himself very strictly in His vow. Paramesvara informed
the Lord that his wife, Mukundara Mata, had come with him. He should not have
mentioned her, and therefore the Lord hesitated for a moment, but due to His
affection for Paramesvara, He did not say anything. Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu had
known Paramesvara Modaka since His childhood, and therefore Paramesvara did
not think twice about informing the Lord of his wife's arrival.
