Å›rÄ«-rÅ«pa - ÅšrÄ«la RÅ«pa GosvÄmÄ«; raghunÄtha - ÅšrÄ«la RaghunÄtha dÄsa GosvÄmÄ«; pade - at the lotus feet; yÄra - whose; ÄÅ›a - expectation; caitanya-caritÄmá¹›ta - the book named Caitanya-caritÄmá¹›ta; kahe - describes; kṛṣṇadÄsa - ÅšrÄ«la KṛṣṇadÄsa KavirÄja GosvÄmÄ«.
Praying at the lotus feet of ÅšrÄ« RÅ«pa and ÅšrÄ« RaghunÄtha, always desiring their mercy, I, KṛṣṇadÄsa, narrate ÅšrÄ« Caitanya-caritÄmá¹›ta, following in their footsteps.
Thus end the Bhaktivedanta purports to ÅšrÄ« Caitanya-caritÄmá¹›ta, Madhya-lÄ«lÄ, first chapter, summarizing the later pastimes of Lord ÅšrÄ« Caitanya MahÄprabhu.
