Caitanya Caritamrta 1.220 - Kali Cela ou Um Pseudo Devoto

CC Madhya 1.220 sabāra caraṇe dhari, paḍe dui bhāi sabe bale, — dhanya tumi, pāile gosāñi Synonyms sabāra — of all of them; caraṇe — the lotus feet; dhari — touching; paḍe — fall down; dui bhāi — the two brothers; sabe bale — all the Vaiṣṇavas say; dhanya tumi — you are so fortunate; pāile gosāñi — you have gotten the shelter of the lotus feet of Lord Caitanya Mahāprabhu. Translation In  accordance with the instructions of Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu, the two  brothers, Rūpa and Sanātana, immediately touched the lotus feet of these  Vaiṣṇavas, who all became very happy and congratulated the two brothers  for having received the mercy of the Lord. Purport This  behavior is indicative of real Vaiṣṇavas. When they saw that Rūpa and  Sanātana were fortunate enough to receive the mercy of the Lord, they  were so pleased that they all congratulated the two brothers. A jealous  person in the dress of a Vaiṣṇava is not at all happy to see the success  of another Vaiṣṇava in receiving the Lord’s mercy. Unfortunately, in  this Age of Kali there are many mundane persons in the dress of  Vaiṣṇavas, and Śrīla Bhaktivinoda Ṭhākura has described them as  disciples of Kali. He says, kali-celā. He indicates that there is another Vaiṣṇava, a pseudo Vaiṣṇava with tilaka on his nose and kaṇṭhī beads  around his neck. Such a pseudo Vaiṣṇava associates with money and women  and is jealous of successful Vaiṣṇavas. Although passing for a  Vaiṣṇava, his only business is earning money in the dress of a Vaiṣṇava.  Bhaktivinoda Ṭhākura therefore says that such a pseudo Vaiṣṇava is not a  Vaiṣṇava at all but a disciple of Kali-yuga. A disciple of Kali cannot  become an ācārya by the decision of some high court. Mundane votes have no jurisdiction to elect a Vaiṣṇava ācārya. A Vaiṣṇava ācārya is self-effulgent, and there is no need for any court judgment. A false ācārya may try to override a Vaiṣṇava by a high-court decision, but  Bhaktivinoda Ṭhākura says that he is nothing but a disciple of  Kali-yuga.
