śuni' - hearing; harṣe - in great jubilation; kahe prabhu - Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu said; kahile niścaya - you have spoken correctly; yāṅhā haite - from whom; kṛṣṇa-bhakti - devotion to Kṛṣṇa; sei - that person; guru haya - is the spiritual master.

Hearing Mukunda dāsa give this proper decision, Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu confirmed it, saying, “Yes, it is correct. One who awakens devotion to Kṛṣṇa is certainly the spiritual master.”
