ÅšrÄ« Caitanya MahÄprabhu admitted that He was speaking like a madman, which He should not have done for the understanding of those who are externally situated. Statements about Kṛṣṇa’s body, His characteristics and His flute would appear like a madman’s statements to a mundane person. It was actually a fact that Kṛṣṇa wanted to reveal Himself to SanÄtana GosvÄmÄ« due to His specific mercy upon him. Somehow or other, Kṛṣṇa explained Himself and His flute to SanÄtana GosvÄmÄ« through the mouth of ÅšrÄ« Caitanya MahÄprabhu, who appeared as though mad. ÅšrÄ« Caitanya MahÄprabhu admitted that He wanted to tell SanÄtana GosvÄmÄ« something else, but somehow or other, in transcendental ecstasy, He spoke of a different subject matter.
