TRANSLATION

Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu danced in ecstasy, but when He arrived at Arit-
grama, His sense perception was awakened.

PURPORT

Arit-grama is also called Arista-grama. Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu understood
that in that village, Aristasura was killed by Sri Krsna. While there, He inquired
about Radha-kunda, but no one could tell Him where it was. The brahmana ac-
companying Him could also not ascertain its whereabouts. Sri Caitanya
Mahaprabhu could then understand that the holy places known as Radha-kunda
and Syama-kunda were at that time lost to everyone’s vision. He therefore dis-
covered Radha-kunda and Syama-kunda, which were two reservoirs of water in
two paddy fields. Although there was very little water, Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu
was omniscient and could understand that formerly these two ponds were called
Sri Radha-kunda and Syama-kunda. In this way Radha-kunda and Syama-kundé
were discovered.
