Text 66) The Later Pastimes of Lord Caitanya 45
TRANSLATION
Every day Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu used to see the upala-bhoga
ceremony at the temple of Jagannatha, and after seeing this, He used to go
visit these three great personalities on His way to His own residence.
PURPORT
Upala-bhoga is a particular type of offering performed just behind the
Garuda-stamba on a stone slab. That stone slab is called the upala. All food is
offered within the temple room just below the altar of Jagannatha. This
bhoga, however, was offered on the stone slab within the vision of the
public; therefore it is called upala-bhoga.
