"তুমি - পূর্ণ-ব্রহ্মানন্দ, করহ স্মরণ ।
ব্রহ্মবিৎ হঞা কেনে করহ রোদন?" ॥ ২১ ॥
"tumi-purna-brahmananda, karaha smarana
brahmavit hana kene karaha rodana?"
tumi-you; purna-brahma-ananda-full in transcendental bliss; karaha smarana-you should remember; brahma-vit hana-being fully aware of Brahman; kene-why; karaha rodana-are you crying.
"If you are in full transcendental bliss," he said, "you should now remember only Brahman. Why are you crying?"
As stated in Bhagavad-gita, brahma-bhutah prasannatma: a Brahman realized person is always happy. Na socati na kaṅksati: he neither laments nor aspires for anything. Not knowing why Madhavendra Puri was crying, Ramacandra Puri tried to become his advisor. Thus he committed a great offense, for a disciple should never try to instruct his spiritual master.
