Out of compassion for the fallen souls, Sri Krisna Chaitanya Mahaprabhu descended to this world with His personal associates and divine abode to teach ‘saranagati’ ——- surrender to the Supreme Personality of Godhead, and to freely distribute ecstatic love of God, which is ordinarily very difficult to obtain.
This ‘saranagati’ is the very life of the true devotee of the Supreme Lord.
