TEXT 40

mukti—śreṣṭha kari’ kainu vāśiṣṭha vyākhyāna
kruddha hañā prabhu more kaila apamāna


SYNONYMS

mukti — liberation; śreṣṭha — the topmost; kari’ — accepting; kainu — I did; vāśiṣṭha — the book known as Yoga-vāśiṣṭha; vyākhyāna — explanation; kruddha — angry; hañā — becoming; prabhu — the Lord; more — unto Me; kaila — did; apamāna — disrespect.


TRANSLATION

“Thus I expounded the Yoga-vāśiṣṭha, which considers liberation the ultimate goal of life. For this the Lord became angry at Me and treated Me with apparent disrespect.


PURPORT

There is a book of the name Yoga-vāśiṣṭha that Māyāvādīs greatly favor because it is full of impersonal misunderstandings regarding the Supreme Personality of Godhead, with no touch of Vaiṣṇavism. Factually, all Vaiṣṇavas should avoid such a book, but Advaita Ācārya Prabhu, wanting punishment from the Lord, began to support the impersonal statements of the Yoga-vāśiṣṭha. Thus Lord Caitanya Mahāprabhu became extremely angry at Him and seemingly treated Him disrespectfully.
