Text 236] Sarvabhauma Bhattacarya Offers Prasdda to the Lord 119
TRANSLATION
“Now please sit in this place and take Your lunch.’ Caitanya Mahaprabhu
replied, ‘This place is worshipable because it was used by Krsna.”
PURPORT
According to etiquette, things used by Krsna should not be used by anyone
else. Similarly, things used by the spiritual master should also not be used by any-
one else. That is etiquette. Whatever is used by Krsna or the spiritual master is
worshipable. In particular, their sitting or eating places should not be used by any-
one else. A devotee must be very careful to observe this.
