Significado

Advaita Ācārya was a disciple of Mādhavendra Purī, Īśvara Purī’s spiritual master. Therefore Īśvara Purī, the spiritual master of Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu, was Advaita Ācārya’s Godbrother. In view of this, Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu treated Advaita Ācārya as His spiritual master, but Śrī Advaita Ācārya did not like this behavior of Lord Caitanya, for He wanted to be treated as His eternal servant. Advaita Prabhu’s aspiration was to be a servant of the Lord, not His spiritual master. He therefore devised a plan to antagonize the Lord. He began to explain the path of philosophical speculation in the midst of some unfortunate Māyāvādīs, and when Lord Caitanya Mahāprabhu heard about this, He immediately went there and in a very angry mood began to beat Advaita Ācārya. At that time, Advaita Ācārya, greatly pleased, began to dance, saying, “Just see how My desire has now been fulfilled! Lord Caitanya Mahāprabhu used to treat Me honorably for so long, but now He is treating Me neglectfully. This is My reward. His affection for Me is so great that He wanted to save Me from the hands of the Māyāvādīs.” Hearing this statement, Lord Caitanya Mahāprabhu was somewhat ashamed, but He was very pleased with Advaita Ācārya.

Advaita Ācārya era discípulo de Mādhavendra Purī, el maestro espiritual de Īśvara Purī. Por tanto, Īśvara Purī, el maestro espiritual de Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu, era hermano espiritual de Advaita Ācārya. En vista de esto, Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu trataba a Śrī Advaita Ācārya como si fuese Su maestro espiritual, pero a Śrī Advaita Ācārya no Le gustaba esa conducta del Señor Caitanya, porque quería que Le tratase como Su sirviente eterno. La aspiración de Advaita Ācārya era ser un sirviente del Señor, no Su maestro espiritual. Por tanto, imaginó un plan para atraerse la desaprobación del Señor. Comenzó a explicar el sendero de la especulación filosófica a un grupo de infelices māyāvādīs, y cuando Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu Se enteró, fue allí inmediatamente y, muy irritado, comenzó a pegarle a Advaita Ācārya. Entonces, Advaita Ācārya, sumamente contento, comenzó a bailar diciendo: «¡Mirad cómo se ha cumplido Mi deseo! Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu Me estuvo tratando con honor por mucho tiempo, pero ahora Me está tratando sin consideración. Éste es Mi premio. Su afecto por Mí es tan grande que ha querido salvarme de las manos de los māyāvādīs». Al oír esto, Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu Se sintió ligeramente avergonzado, pero estaba muy complacido con Advaita Ācārya.
