Text 273] The Later Pastimes of Lord Caitanya 157
TRANSLATION

Thus Sri Caitanya Mahdprabhu chastised all the devotees, telling them
not to show impudence and spoil the entire world by becoming indepen-
dent.

PURPORT

$f Caitanya Mahaprabhu warned all His followers not to become indepen-
dent or impudent. Unfortunately, after the disappearance of Lord Caitanya
Mahdaprabhu, many apa-sampradayas (so-called followers) invented many
ways not approved by the dcaryas. Bhaktivinoda Thakura has described them
as: the aula, baula, karttabhaja, ned4, daravesa, sani sahajiyd, sakhibheki,
smarta, jata-gosaii, ativadi, cidadhari and gauranga-nagari.

The dula-sampradaya, baula-sampradaya and others invented their own
ways of understanding Lord Caitanya’s philosophy without following in the
footsteps of the dcaryas. Sr Caitanya Mahaprabhu Himself indicates herein
that all such attempts would simply spoil the spirit of His cult.
