Význam

In the Antya-līlā of Caitanya-caritāmṛta, chapter two, verses 104-106, there is a description of Mādhavīdevī. Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu considered her one of the maidservants of Śrīmatī Rādhārāṇī. Within this world, Caitanya Mahāprabhu had three and a half very confidential devotees. The three were Svarūpa Gosāñi, Śrī Rāmānanda Rāya and Śikhi Māhiti, and Śikhi Māhiti’s sister, Mādhavīdevī, being a woman, was considered the half. Thus it is known that Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu had three and a half confidential devotees.

Verše 104–106 druhé kapitoly Antya-līly Caitanya-caritāmṛty obsahují popis Mādhavī-devī. Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu ji považoval za jednu ze služebnic Śrīmatī Rādhārāṇī. Caitanya Mahāprabhu měl v tomto světě tři a půl velmi důvěrných oddaných. Ti tři byli Svarūpa Gosāñi, Śrī Rāmānanda Rāya a Śikhi Māhiti, a Mādhavī-devī, sestra Śikhiho Māhitiho, byla jako žena onou polovinou. Proto se říká, že Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu měl tři a půl důvěrných oddaných.
