TEXT 49

hena-kāle āilā tathā bhavānanda rāya
cāri-putra-saṅge paḍe mahāprabhura pāya


SYNONYMS

hena-kāle—at this time; āilā—came; tathā—there; bhavānanda rāya—Bhavānanda Rāya; cāri-putra-saṅge—with four of his sons; paḍe—fell down; mahāprabhura pāya—at the lotus feet of Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu.


TRANSLATION

At this time Bhavānanda Rāya appeared with four of his sons, and all of them fell down at the lotus feet of Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu.


PURPORT

Bhavānanda Rāya had five sons, one of whom was the exalted personality known as Rāmānanda Rāya. Bhavānanda Rāya first met Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu after His return from South India. At that time Rāmānanda Rāya was still serving at his government post; therefore when Bhavānanda Rāya went to see Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu, he went with his other four sons. They were named Vāṇīnātha, Gopīnātha, Kalānidhi and Sudhānidhi. A description of Bhavānanda Rāya and his five sons is given in the Adi-līlā (10.133-34).
