Every day ÅšrÄ« Caitanya MahÄprabhu refused their invitations because He feared associating with MÄyÄvÄdÄ« sannyÄsÄ«s.

Purport

A Vaiṣṇava sannyÄsÄ« never accepts an invitation from a party who considers MÄyÄvÄdÄ« sannyÄsÄ«s and Vaiṣṇava sannyÄsÄ«s to be one and the same. In other words, Vaiṣṇava sannyÄsÄ«s do not at all like to associate with MÄyÄvÄdÄ« sannyÄsÄ«s, to say nothing of eating with them. This principle must be followed by the sannyÄsÄ«s of the Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement. That is the instruction of ÅšrÄ« Caitanya MahÄprabhu, given by His personal behavior.
