TRANSLATION

Thus I have ended my narration about Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu's pilgrimage, describing it in brief. It cannot be described very broadly.

PURPORT

Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati Thakura points out that in the seventy-fourth verse of this chapter it is stated that Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu visited the temple of Siyali-bhairavi, but actually at Siyali, Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu visited the temple of Sri Bhu-varaha. Near Siyali and Cidambaram there is a temple known as Sri Musnam. In this temple there is a Deity of Sri Bhu-varaha. In the jurisdiction of Cidambaram there is a district known as southern Arkata. The town of Siyali is in that district. There is a temple of Sri Bhu-varahadeva nearby, not Bhairavi-devi. This is Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati Thakura's conclusion.
