TRANSLATION

When Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu realized Lord Jagannātha to be Krishna Himself, Lord Caitanya's five senses immediately became absorbed in attraction for the five attributes of Lord Krishna.

PURPORT

Śrī Krishna's beauty attracted the eyes of Lord Caitanya Mahāprabhu, Krishna's singing and the vibration of His flute attracted the Lord's ears, the transcendental fragrance of Krishna's lotus feet attracted His nostrils, Krishna's transcendental sweetness attracted His tongue, and Krishna's bodily touch attracted the Lord's sensation of touch. Thus each of Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu's five senses was attracted by one of the five attributes of Lord Krishna.
