320 Sri Caitanya-caritamrta [Madhya-lila, Ch. 9<br />

TRANSLATION<br />

All mental speculators and learned scholars were defeated by Sri Caitanya<br />

Mahaprabhu , and when the people began to laugh, the Buddhist philosophers<br />

felt both shame and fear.<br />

PURPORT<br />

These philosophers were all atheists, for they did not believe in the existence of<br />

God. Atheists may be very expert in mental speculation and may be so-called<br />

great philosophers, but they can be defeated by a Vai�l)ava firmly situated in his<br />

conviction and God consciousness. Following in the footsteps of Sri Caitanya<br />

Mahaprabhu, all the preachers engaged in the service of ISKCON should be very<br />

expert in putting forward strong arguments and defeating all types of atheists.<br />
