LORD CHAITANYA MEETS KING PRATAPARUDRA
Lord Chaitanya refused to meet King Prataparudra because, as a sannyasi, the Lord did not associate with rich or famous men. However, when the King proved his humility and devotion, Lord Chaitanya fulfilled King Prataparudra’s long cherished desire to meet Him, and they spent time together in a garden in Jagannatha Puri. The Lord allowed the King to come close to Him, to sing to Him and to massage His lotus feet. The Lord then embraced the King, filling him with the greatest spiritual bliss.
