FILE INFO | Caption | "One day, when Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu went to visit the temple of Lord Jagannatha, the gatekeeper at Simha-dvara [the lion gate outside the Jagannatha temple in Puri] approached Him and offered respectful obeisances. The Lord asked him, 'Where is Krishna, My life and soul? Please show Me Krishna.' Saying this, He caught the doorkeeper's hand. The doorkeeper replied, 'The son of Maharaja Nanda is here; please come along with me, and I shall show You.' Lord Chaitanya said to the doorman, 'You are My friend. Please show Me where the Lord of My heart is.' After the Lord said this, they both went to the place known as Jagamohana, where everyone views Lord Jagannatha. 'Just see!' the doorkeeper said. 'Here is the best of the Personalities of Godhead. From here You may see the Lord to the full satisfaction of Your eyes.' Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu stayed behind the huge column called the Garuda-stambha and looked upon Lord Jagannatha, but as He looked He saw that Lord Jagannatha had become Lord Krishna, with His flute to His mouth." -Chaitanya-caritamrita, Antya-lila, 16.80-85 | Headline | Chaitanya Mahaprabhu Sees Lord Jagannatha Become Lord Krishna | Copyright Notice | © Copyright The Bhaktivedanta Book Trust International, Inc.
