In this way all the opulences of Advaita Ä€cÄrya — His faith, devotion, home, riches and everything else — were successfully utilized in the worship of Lord Caitanya MahÄprabhu.

Purport

Advaita Ä€cÄrya set an ideal example for all householder devotees in His reception of Lord Caitanya MahÄprabhu and His devotees and in His execution of a daily festival at His home. If one has the proper means and wealth, he should occasionally invite the devotees of Lord Caitanya who are engaged in preaching all over the world and hold a festival at home simply by distributing prasÄdam and talking about Kṛṣṇa during the day and holding congregational chanting for at least three hours in the evening. This procedure must be adopted in all centers of the Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement. Thus they will daily perform saá¹…kÄ«rtana-yajña. In ÅšrÄ«mad-BhÄgavatam (11.5.32) the daily performance of saá¹…kÄ«rtana-yajña is recommended for this age (yajñaiḥ saá¹…kÄ«rtana-prÄyair yajanti hi su-medhasaḥ). One should worship Lord Caitanya MahÄprabhu and His four associates, the Pañca-tattva, by distributing prasÄdam and holding congregational chanting. Indeed, that yajña or sacrifice, is most recommended in this Age of Kali. In this age, other yajñas are not possible to perform, but this yajña can be performed everywhere and anywhere without difficulty.
