After accepting the sannyasa order of life, Lord Caitanya Mahaprabhu, out of intense love for Krsna, wanted to go to Vrndavana, but apparently by mistake He wandered in the Radha-desa. Later He arrived at Santipura and enjoyed Himself there with His devotees. I offer my respectful obeisances to Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu.
