TEXT 138

yadyapi mukunda—āmā-saṅge śiśu haite
tāṅhā haite adhika sukha tomāre dekhite


SYNONYMS

yadyapi—although; mukunda—Mukunda; āmā-saṅge—with Me; śiśu haite—from childhood; tāṅhā haite—than him; adhika—still more; sukha—happiness; tomāre dekhite—to see you.


TRANSLATION

Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu said, “Although Mukunda is My friend from childhood, I nonetheless take greater pleasure in seeing you than in seeing him.”


PURPORT

Vāsudeva Datta was the older brother of Mukunda Datta, who was the childhood friend of Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu. It is naturally a great pleasure to see a friend, but Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu informed Vāsudeva Datta that although it was His pleasure to see His friend, His pleasure was increased by seeing the older brother.
