TEXT 71

ei dui-ghare prabhu ekādaśī dine

SYNONYMS

ei dui-ghare—in these two houses; prabhu—the Lord; ekādaśī dine—on the Ekādaśī day; viṣṇura—of Lord Viṣṇu; naivedya—food offered to Lord Viṣṇu; māgi’—begging; khāila—ate; āpane—personally.


TRANSLATION

In their two houses Lord Caitanya Mahāprabhu begged food on the Ekādaśī day and personally ate it.


PURPORT

The injunction to fast on Ekādaśī is especially meant for devotees; on Ekādaśī there are no restrictions regarding food that may be offered to the Lord. Lord Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu took the food of Lord Viṣṇu in His ecstasy as viṣṇu-tattva.
