Text 68] Lord Caitanya at the House of Advaita Acarya 275

PURPORT

Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati Thakura states that one of these servings
was Offered in a metal dish and was meant for Krsna, whereas the other two
were placed on big banana leaves. The offering on the metal plate was per-
sonally offered by Advaita Acdrya to Krsna. The other two servings, on
banana leaves, were to be accepted by Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu and Lord
Nityananda. That was Advaita Acdrya’s intention, but He did not disclose this
to Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu. Thus when Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu saw the
foodstuff offered in three places, He thought that all of it was meant for
Krsna.
