CB Madhya lila

 

15-16. "Even if Nityänanda is a drunkard, and even if

my noble birth, my life, and my wealth all perish because of Him,

in my heart I will not think badly of Him. I will not think He is

at all different from You. What I tell You is the truth. It is

the truth."

17. Hearing these words from Çréväsa's mouth, Lord Caitanya

stood up and roared.

18. The Lord aid, "Çréväsa Paëòita, what did you

say? You have faith in Nityänanda?

19. "You have understood the secret of Nityänanda. I

am pleased. I give you this boon:

20. "Even if Goddess Lakñmé goes begging from town

to town, poverty will never enter your home.

21. "Even the dogs, cats, and other animals in your

house will find peace in My devotional service.

22. "I place Nityänanda in your home. Please serve

Him in every way."

23. After giving this boon to Çréväsa, Lord Caitanya

returned home. Lord Nityänanda requalrly wandered in the villages

of Nadéyä.
