Text

ÅšrÄ« Caitanya MahÄprabhu delivered almost all the fallen souls by directly meeting them. He delivered others by entering the bodies of great devotees, such as Nakula BrahmacÄrÄ«. And He delivered still others by appearing before them, as in the case of Ná¹›siá¹hÄnanda BrahmacÄrÄ«. “I shall deliver the fallen souls.†This statement characterizes the Supreme Personality of Godhead.

Purport

The Lord always manifested His ÄvirbhÄva appearance in the following four places: (1) the house of ÅšrÄ«matÄ« ÅšacÄ«mÄtÄ, (2) wherever NityÄnanda Prabhu danced in ecstasy, (3) the house of ÅšrÄ«vÄsa (when kÄ«rtana was performed), and (4) the house of RÄghava Paṇá¸ita. Lord Caitanya Himself appeared in these four places. (In this connection, one may consult text 34.)
