TEXT 210
- ethā sanātana gosāñi prayāge āsiyā
- mathurā āilā sarāna rāja-patha diyā
SYNONYMS
ethā — here (at the other end); sanātana gosāñi — Sanātana Gosāñi; prayāge āsiyā — coming to Prayāga; mathurā āilā — he reached Vṛndāvana; sarāna — directly; rāja-patha diyā — on the government road or public road.
TRANSLATION
After reaching Prayāga, Sanātana Gosvāmī, following the order of Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu, went to Vṛndāvana along the public road.
PURPORT
This is especially significant because when Sanātana Gosvāmī went from Bengal to Benares, due to the political situation he did not go along the public road. After meeting Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu at Benares, however, he was ordered to proceed to Vṛndāvana along the public road leading to Mathurā. In other words, he was advised not to fear for his political situation.
