"When Rupa Gosvami first met Lord Caitanya Mahaprabhu at Prayag, Lord Caitanya was chanting and dancing in the street, 'Hare Krsna, Hare Krsna.' At that time also Rupa Gosvami offered one prayer. Namo maha-vadanyaya krsna-prema-pradaya te: 'Oh you are the most munificent of all incarnations because You are distributing love of Godhead.' Krsna-prema-pradaya te/ krsnaya krsna-caitanya namne gaura tvise namah: 'You are Krsna Himself, because if you were not Krsna You could not distribute krsna-prema, or love of God, for love of God is not so easily acquired. But you are distributing this love freely to everyone.'"
