Bhaktivedanta VedaBase: Śrī Caitanya Caritāmrita Ādi 7.46
tapana-miśrera ghare bhikshā-nirvāhana
sannyāsīra sańge nāhi māne nimantrana
SYNONYMS
tapana-miśrera — of Tapana Miśra; ghare — in the house; bhikshā — accepting food; nirvāhana — regularly executed; sannyāsīra — with other Māyāvādī sannyāsīs; sańge — in company with them; nāhi — never; māne — accepted; nimantrana — invitation.
TRANSLATION
As a matter of principle, Lord Caitanya regularly accepted His food at the house of Tapana Miśra. He never mixed with other sannyāsīs, nor did He accept invitations from them.
PURPORT
This exemplary behavior of Lord Caitanya definitely proves that a Vaishnava sannyāsī cannot accept invitations from Māyāvādī sannyāsīs or intimately mix with them.
