Oh, and there's actually a verse also in the Caitanya Caritamrta which establishes the same -- that the spreading of sankirtana movement and delivering the world (paritranaya sadhunam vinasaya ca duskrtam), or promulgating the yuga-dharma -- is something which is done by Maha-Vishnu, or in other words, by Advaita Acarya. yanra dvara kaila prabhu kirtana pracara yanra dvara kaila prabhu jagat nistara TRANSLATION It is through Him [Advaita Acarya] that Lord Caitanya spread the sankirtana movement and through Him that He delivered the world. ============ REF.
