TRANSLATION

Thus Paramananda Puri started for Jagannatha Puri, and Sri Caitanya
Mahaprabhu began walking toward Sri Saila.

PURPORT

Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati Thakura remarks, “Which Sri Saila is being indi-
cated by Krsnadasa Kaviraja Gosvami is not clearly understood. There is no temple
of Mallikarjuna in this area because the Sri Saila located in the district of
Dharavada cannot possibly be there. That Sri Saila is on the southern side of
Belagrdma, and the Siva temple of Mallikarjuna is located there. (Refer to text fif-
teen of this chapter.) It is said that there on that hill Lord Siva lived with Devi. Also
Lord Brahma lived there with all the demigods.”
