After this incident the Lord ate raw rice given by ÅšuklÄmbara BrahmacÄrÄ« and explained very elaborately the import of the “harer nÄma†śloka mentioned in the Bá¹›han-nÄradÄ«ya PurÄṇa.
ÅšuklÄmbara BrahmacÄrÄ« resided in NavadvÄ«pa on the bank of the Ganges. When ÅšrÄ« Caitanya MahÄprabhu was dancing in ecstasy, he approached the Lord with a begging bag containing rice. The Lord was so pleased with His devotee that He immediately snatched the bag and began to eat the raw rice. No one forbade Him, and thus He finished the entire supply of rice.
