64 Sri Caitanya-caritamrta [Madhya-lila, Ch. 17

sange—in the association of; dui-loka-ndsa—destruction in this world and the
next.
TRANSLATION

“Do not go to see Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu. Just continue hearing Vedanta.
If you associate with upstarts, you will be lost in this world and in the next.”

PURPORT

The word ucchrnikhala, meaning “whimsical,” is significant in this verse. In
Bhagavad-gitad (16.23), Lord Krsna Himself says:

yah sastra-vidhim utsrjya
vartate kama-kdaratah

na sa siddhim avapnoti
na sukham na param gatim

If one acts whimsically and does not follow the Sastric principles, he will never at-
tain perfection, happiness or the spiritual world.
