সেই লিখি, মদনগোপাল যে লিখায় ।
কাষ্ঠের পুত্তলী যেন কুহকে নাচায় ॥৭৯ ॥
sei likhi, madana-gopala ye likhaya
kasthera puttali yena kuhake nacaya
SYNONYMS
sei likhi-I write that; madana-gopala-the Deity Madana-gopala; ye-whatever; likhaya-dictates to me; kasthera-wooden; puttali-a doll; yena-like; kuhake-the enchanter; nacaya-causes to dance.
TRANSLATION
As a wooden doll is made to dance by a magician, I write as Madana-gopala orders me to do so.
PURPORT
This is the position of a pure devotee. One should not take any responsibility on his own but should be a soul surrendered to the Supreme Personality of Godhead, who will then give him dictation as caitya-guru, or the spiritual master within. The Supreme Personality of Godhead is pleased to guide a devotee from within and without. From within He guides him as the Supersoul, and from without He guides him as the spiritual master.
