Text 102) The Lord’s Visit to Sri Vrndavana 181

krsna kene darasana dibe kali-kale?
nija-bhrame murkha-loka kare kolahale

SYNONYMS

krsna—Lord Krsna; kene—why; darasana—interview; dibe—would give; kali-
kale—in this age of Kali; nija-bhrame—by their own mistake; murkha-loka—
foolish persons; kare kolahale—make a chaotic tumult.

TRANSLATION

“Why will Krsna appear in the age of Kali? Foolish people who are mistaken
are simply causing agitation and making a tumult.

PURPORT

Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu's first statement (krsna kene darasana dibe kali-kale)
refers to the scriptures. According to scripture, Krsna appears in Dvapara-yuga,
but He never appears as Himself in Kali-yuga. Rather, He appears in Kali-yuga in a
covered form. As stated in $rimad-Bhagavatam (11.5.32): krsna-varnarh
tvisakrsnarn sangopangastra-parsadam. Krsna appears in the age of Kali in the garb
of a devotee, Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu, who always associates with His internal
soldiers—Sri Advaita Prabhu, Sri Nityananda Prabhu, Srivasa Prabhu and
Gadadhara Prabhu. Although Balabhadra Bhattacarya was personally serving Lord
Krsna in His role as a devotee (Caitanya Mahaprabhu), he mistook Lord Krsna for
an ordinary man and an ordinary man for Lord Krsna because he did not follow the
rules set down by sdastra and guru.
