TRANSLATION
Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu said, “Although Mukunda is My friend from
childhood, | nonetheless take greater pleasure in seeing you than in seeing
him.”
PURPORT
Vasudeva Datta was the father of Mukunda Datta, who was the childhood
friend of Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu. It is naturally a great pleasure to see a friend,
but Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu informed the father that although it was His
pleasure to see His friend, His pleasure was increased by seeing the father.
