Å›aá¹…kare dekhiyÄ prabhu kahe dÄmodare
sagaurava-prÄ«ti ÄmÄra tomÄra upare
Å›aá¹…kare dekhiyÄ - seeing Åšaá¹…kara; prabhu - the Lord; kahe - says; dÄmodare - unto DÄmodara; sa-gaurava-prÄ«ti - affection with awe and reverence; ÄmÄra - My; tomÄra upare - upon you.
After seeing Åšaá¹…kara, Lord ÅšrÄ« Caitanya MahÄprabhu told DÄmodara, “My affection for you is on the platform of awe and reverence.
Here the Lord is addressing DÄmodara Paṇá¸ita, who is different from SvarÅ«pa DÄmodara. DÄmodara Paṇá¸ita is the elder brother of Åšaá¹…kara. Thus the Lord informed DÄmodara that His affection toward him was on the platform of awe and reverence. However, the Lord’s affection toward his younger brother, Åšaá¹…kara, was on the platform of pure love.
