Bhaktivedanta VedaBase: Śrī Caitanya Caritāmṛta Ādi 12.36

govindere ājñā dila, — "ińhā āji haite

bāuliyā viśvāse ethā nā dibe āsite"

SYNONYMS

govindere — unto Govinda; ājñā dila — ordered; ińhāto this place; āji — today; haite — from; bāuliyā — the Māyāvādī; viśvāse — unto Kamalākānta Viśvāsa; ethā — here; do not; dibe — allow; āsiteto come.

TRANSLATION

The Lord ordered Govinda, "From today on, do not allow that bāuliyā Kamalākānta Viśvāsa to come here."

PURPORT

The bāuliyās, or bāulas, are one of thirteen unauthorized sects that pass as followers of Caitanya Mahāprabhu. The Lord ordered Govinda, His personal assistant, not to allow Kamalākānta Viśvāsa to come into His presence because he had become a bāuliyā. Thus although the bāula-sampradāya, āula-sampradāya and sahajiyā-sampradāya, as well as the smārtas, jāta-gosāñis, ativāḍīs, cūḍādhārīs and gaurāńga-nāgarīs, claim to belong to the disciplic succession of Caitanya Mahāprabhu, the Lord actually rejected them.
