Text

prabhu kahe, — “kāśī-miśra, ki tumi karilā?
rāja-pratigraha tumi āmā’ karāilā?”

Synonyms

prabhu kahe — Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu said; kāśī-miśra — My dear Kāśī Miśra; ki — what; tumi karilā — have you done; rāja-pratigraha — taking from the King; tumi — you; āmā’ — Me; karāilā — have made to do.

Translation

Upon hearing about Kāśī Miśra’s tactics with the King, Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu said, “Kāśī Miśra, what have you done? You have made Me indirectly take help from the King.”

Purport

When the King heard the details of Gopīnātha Paṭṭanāyaka’s unfortunate condemnation, he was induced to excuse his debt, in particular because he felt that Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu was very sorry about this incident. The Lord did not like the idea that the money forfeited to Gopīnātha Paṭṭanāyaka was indirectly a contribution to Him. Therefore He immediately protested.
