Hello.
One question is English. This is the question in chaitanya Bhagavad chapter 27 verses 47 and 48 where Mahaprabhu giving consolation to Mother Sachi after she come to know about Mahprabhu's Sannyas. Mah Prabhu says that further in his two more incarnations she will be his mother. First is Mahaprabhu. Further in two more incarnations she will be his mother. First Mahaprabhu deity form as the son of Dharitri and Mahaprabhu in holy man as the son of the thumb.
Bhu.
Devi and Daritri Devi is the wife of Vishnu. But Mahaprabhu says that Mother Sachi will be his mother as Subharma is. Basically the question is Mahaprabhu consoles Mother Sachi after he took Sannya. One is she will be his mother when he appears as a deity in.
The form of earth.
And she will be his mother when he appears as his holy name in the form of the thumb. So now the question is if earth becomes his mother. But we understand that Mother Earth Buddhiv is the console of the Lord. So how can this happen? That's the question. So today we were reading Chaitanya Chandramita. This is from Chaitanya Bhagavad.
I'M not asking any question under today's class.
They're not asking any questions today's class. So.
If you ask any question then people's mind will be diverse.

They are trying to reach Lord Chaitanya.
So the author is saying I too are trying to reach Lord Caitanya.
The author is saying I too I'm trying to reach Lord Chaitanya.
And they will not be that far away with other great personalities. I love to see him.
He will be far away. If these other personalities will not be able to to see him.
