Daily Reading: Caitanya Caritamrita page-33


CC Ādi 1.71

citraṁ bataitad ekena
vapuṣā yugapat pṛthak
gṛheṣu dvy-aṣṭa-sāhasraṁ
striya eka udāvahat
Translation: 
“It is astounding that Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa, who is one without a second, expanded Himself in sixteen thousand similar forms to marry sixteen thousand queens in their respective homes.”


CC Ādi 1.72

rāsotsavaḥ sampravṛtto
gopī-maṇḍala-maṇḍitaḥ
yogeśvareṇa kṛṣṇena
tāsāṁ madhye dvayor dvayoḥ
Translation: 
“When Lord Kṛṣṇa, surrounded by groups of cowherd girls, began the festivities of the rāsa dance, the Lord of all mystic powers placed Himself between each two girls.”
Purport: 
This verse is also quoted from Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam (10.33.3).

CC Ādi 1.73-74

praviṣṭena gṛhītānāṁ
kaṇṭhe sva-nikaṭaṁ striyaḥ
yaṁ manyeran nabhas tāvad
vimāna-śata-saṅkulam
divaukasāṁ sa-dārāṇām
aty-autsukya-bhṛtātmanām
tato dundubhayo nedur
nipetuḥ puṣpa-vṛṣṭayaḥ
Translation: 
“When the cowherd girls and Kṛṣṇa thus joined together, each girl thought that Kṛṣṇa was dearly embracing her alone. To behold this wonderful pastime of the Lord’s, the denizens of heaven and their wives, all very eager to see the dance, flew in the sky in their hundreds of airplanes. They showered flowers and beat sweetly on drums.”
Purport: 
This is another quotation from Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam (10.33.3-4).

CC Ādi 1.75

anekatra prakaṭatā
rūpasyaikasya yaikadā
sarvathā tat-svarūpaiva
sa prakāśa itīryate
Translation: 
“If numerous forms, all equal in their features, are displayed simultaneously, such forms are called prakāśa-vigrahas of the Lord.”
Purport: 
This is a quotation from the Laghu-bhāgavatāmṛta (1.21), compiled by Śrīla Rūpa Gosvāmī.
