Text 78] The Liberation of Sarvabhauma Bhattacarya 229

TRANSLATION

Sarvabhauma Bhattdcarya then suggested: ‘If Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu
would like, | could bring Him into a first-class sampradaya by offering Him
saffron cloth and performing the reformatory process again.”

PURPORT

The Bhattdcdrya wanted to reinstate Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu into the
Sarasvati sampradaya because he did not like the Lord’s belonging to the Bharati
sampradaya or Puri sampradaya. Actually, he did not know the position of Lord
Caitanya Mahaprabhu. As the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Caitanya
Mahaprabhu did not depend on an inferior or superior sampradaya. The Supreme
Personality of Godhead remains in the supreme position in all circumstances.
