Text

The extraordinary transformations of the body due to transcendental feelings would never have been possible for anyone but the Lord, in whose body all transformations were manifest.

Purport

The ecstatic transformations of the body described in such exalted literatures as the Bhakti-rasÄmá¹›ta-sindhu are practically not seen in this material world. However, these symptoms were perfectly present in the body of ÅšrÄ« Caitanya MahÄprabhu. These symptoms are indicative of mahÄbhÄva, or the highest ecstasy. Sometimes sahajiyÄs artificially imitate these symptoms, but experienced devotees reject such imitations immediately. The author admits herein that these symptoms are not to be found anywhere but in the body of ÅšrÄ« Caitanya MahÄprabhu.
