another; nivedana—submission; tomdra sange—with You; sannydsi—in the
renounced order of life; 4che—there are; dasa-jana—ten persons.

TRANSLATION

After this, Sarvabhauma Bhattacarya said, ‘‘My Lord, there are ten sannydsis
with You.”

PURPORT

A sannyasi should not cook food for himself or accept an invitation to eat at a
devotee’s house continuously for many days. Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu was very
kind and affectionate toward His devotees, yet He would not accept a long invita-
tion at Sarvabhauma’s house. Out of affection, He accepted only five days in the
month. The ten sannyasis living with the Lord were (1) Paramananda Puri, (2)
Svartipa Damodara, (3) Brahmananda Puri, (4) Brahmananda Bharati, (5) Visnu Puri,
(6) KeSava Puri, (7) Krsnananda Puri, (8) Nrsirnha Tirtha, (9) Sukhananda Puri and
(10) Satyananda Bharati.
