TRANSLATION

Seeing the woman’s eagerness, Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu said, ‘Lord Jagan-
natha has not bestowed so much eagerness upon Me.

PURPORT

The woman was so eager to see Lord Jagannatha that she forgot she was
offending the feet of a Vaisnava by climbing the column of Garuda. She also
neglected to consider that by putting her foot on the shoulder of Sri Caitanya
Mahdaprabhu, she offended the Supreme Personality of Godhead. These are both
grievous offenses that displease the Supreme Lord and Vaisnavas. She was so
eager to see Lord Jagannatha, however, that she committed all these offenses
obliviously. Sti Caitanya Mahaprabhu praised her eagerness; He regretted that
Lord Jagannatha had not bestowed such great eagerness upon Him.
