CC Madhya 1: The Later Pastimes of Lord Çré Caitanya Mahäprabhu| 18
TEXT 194
sabe eka doña tära, haya päpäcära
päpa-räçi dahe nämäbhäsei tomära
“Jagäi and Mädhäi had but one fault—they were addicted to sinful
activity. However, volumes of sinful activity can be burned to ashes
simply by a dim reflection of the chanting of Your holy name.
24
By serving materialistic master, one becomes sinful dog
PURPORT: TEXT194
Jagäi and Mädhäi:
1. Addiction (Could vanish by chanting Holy Name and thus
freed from the reactions of sinful activities and saved.)
2. High birth
3. Never served under anyone
4. Never forced to execute abominable activities under the order
of a low-class master
Brähmaëa is forbidden to accept service under anyone.
By accepting a master, one accepts the occupation of a dog.
Dog cannot thrive without having a master.
For the sake of pleasing the master, dogs offend many people.
They bark at innocent people just to please the master.
Similarly, when one is a servant, he has to perform abominable
activities according to the orders of the master.
TEXT 195
tomära näma laïä tomära karila nindana
sei näma ha-ila tära muktira käraëa
“Jagäi and Mädhäi uttered Your holy name by way of blaspheming You.
Fortunately, that holy name became the cause of their deliverance.
