The Mohammedan governor accompanied Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu past Mantresvara. This place was very dangerous due to pirates. He took the Lord to a place named Pichalda, which was near Mantresvara.
The very wide mouth of the Ganges near present-day Diamond Harbor was called Mantresvara. Through the Ganges, the boat entered the Rupa-narayana River and reached the village of Pichalda. Pichalda and Mantresvara are located very close together. After passing Mantresvara, the Mohammedan governor accompanied the Lord as far as Pichalda.
