"Now please sit in this place and take Your lunch."
Caitanya Mahaprabhu replied, "This place is worshipable because it was used by Krishna."
PURPORT
According to etiquette, things used by Krishna should not be used by anyone else. Similarly, things used by the spiritual master should also not be used by anyone else. That is etiquette. Whatever is used by Krishna or the spiritual master is worshipable. In particular, their sitting or eating places should not be used by anyone else. A devotee must be very careful to observe this.
