388 Sri Caitanya-caritamrta [Madhya-lila, Ch. 19

personal Brahman; paramatma—the localized situation of the Lord; jfdna—
knowledge; pravina—prominence.

TRANSLATION

“It is the nature of Santa-rasa that not even the smallest intimacy exists.
Rather, knowledge of impersonal Brahman and localized Paramatma is promi-
nent.

PURPORT

Because of an impersonal impression of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, a
devotee in the sdnta-rasa relationship worships the impersonal Brahman or
localized aspect of the Absolute Truth (Paramatma). He does not develop a per-
sonal relationship with the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Sti Krsna.
