Traducción

When the Durgā-maṇḍapa and courtyard became filled with crowds of men, Rāmacandra Khān, who was inside the house, sent his servant to Lord Nityānanda.

Como la multitud llenó el Durgā-maṇḍapa y el patio, Rāmacandra Khān, que estaba dentro de la casa, envió a su sirviente a hablar con el Señor Nityānanda.

Significado

In those days, and also even now, the palatial buildings of respectable people, especially in the villages of Bengal, were divided into two parts. The inside part was especially meant for the family, and the ladies would live there unexposed to men. That part was called the bhitara-bāḍi, or inside house. In the outside house, or bahir-bāḍi, the respectable gentleman received visitors and kept his business office. The Durgā-maṇḍapa would be part of the outside house. Thus when Lord Nityānanda entered the outside house, Rāmacandra Khān was in the inside house with the members of his family. When Nityānanda Prabhu arrived, Rāmacandra Khān did not receive Him personally but sent his servant to inform Him indirectly to go away.

En aquellos días, como todavía hoy, los edificios palaciegos de la gente respetable, especialmente en las poblaciones de Bengala, se dividían en dos partes. La parte interior estaba especialmente destinada a la familia; era la zona en que vivían las damas, sin exponerse a la vista de los hombres. Esa parte recibía el nombre de bhitara-bāḍi, casa interior. En la casa exterior, bahir-bāḍi, los caballeros respetables recibían a las visitas y tenían su despacho. El Durgā-maṇḍapa formaba parte de la casa exterior. Así, cuando el Señor Nityānanda entró en la casa exterior, Rāmacandra Khān estaba en la interior con sus familiares. Cuando Nityānanda Prabhu llegó, Rāmacandra Khān no Le recibió personalmente, sino que envió a su sirviente para decirle indirectamente que Se marchase.
