sańkaṭe — into a dilemma; paḍila paṇḍitaPaṇḍita Gosāñi fell; karaye saḿśaya — felt doubts; ki karibena — what he will do; eko — alone; karite pāre niścaya — cannot make a decision.

TRANSLATION

Thus Paṇḍita Gosāñi fell into a dilemma. He was in such doubt that he could not decide alone what to do.

PURPORT

Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu did not take Vallabha Bhaṭṭa very seriously. Therefore Paṇḍita Gosāñi, or Gadādhara Gosāñi, fell into perplexity. What would be his position if he heard Vallabha Bhaṭṭa's explanation of Śrī Kṛṣṇa's name? Certainly Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu would be displeased. Therefore Gadādhara Paṇḍita Gosāñi could not make a decision.
