>|Raghunatha Bhatta Gosvami
2|Chapter 13
3|Pastimes with Jagadananda Pandita and Raghunatha Bhatta
>|Gosvami
4|Srila Bhaktivinoda Thakura gives the following summary of
>|the Thirteenth Chapter in his Amrta-pravaha-bhasya.
>|Thinking Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu to be uncomfortable
>|sleeping on bark of plantain trees, Jagadananda made a
>|pillow and quilt for Him. The Lord, however, did not accept
>|them. Then Svarupa Damodara Gosvami made another pillow and
>|quilt from finely shredded plantain leaves, and after
>|strongly objecting, the Lord accepted them. With the
>|permission of Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu, Jagadananda Pandita
>|went to Vrndavana, where he discussed many devotional
>|subjects with Sanatana Gosvami. There was also a discussion
>|about Mukunda Sarasvati's garment. When Jagadananda
>|returned to Jagannatha Puri, he presented Sri Caitanya
>|Mahaprabhu some gifts from Sanatana Gosvami, and the
>|incident of the pilu fruit took place.
5|Once, Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu became ecstatic upon hearing
>|the songs of a deva-dasi. Unaware of who was singing, He
>|ran toward her through thorny bushes, but when Govinda
>|informed the Lord that it was a woman singing, He
>|immediately stopped. By this incident, Sri Caitanya
>|Mahaprabhu instructed everyone that sannyasis and Vaisnavas
>|should not hear women singing.
6|When Raghunatha Bhatta Gosvami left Varanasi on his way to
>|Jagannatha Puri after completing his education, he met
>|Ramadasa Visvasa Pandita. Visvasa Pandita was very proud of
>|his education, and being an impersonalist, he was not well
>|received by Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu. A partial study of
>|the life of Raghunatha Bhatta Gosvami comprises the end of
>|this chapter.
