- “Lord Caitanya’s elder brother Visvarupa is identical with the Personality of Godhead Lord Sankarsana.
Visvarupa never married, but accepted the order of parivrajakacarya sannyasa[1] and left home.
It was the transcendental glory of Sri Visvarupa that caused Lord Caitanya to accept spiritual initiation from Isvara Puri.”
- That Lord Nityananda is also non-differnent from Lord Sankarsana is described in the following statement of the Sri Caitanya-candrodayanataka:
” Nityananda Avadhuta is non-different from Sankarsana.”
- When the eternal Personality of Godhead Visvarupa disappeared from home, He entered the body of Nityananda Avadhuta.
- My father, Sivananda Sena, once said:
“Lord Nityananda Avadhuta is actually the Personality of Godhead Lord Balarama. Always staying among the devotees, He shines with the splendor of thousands of suns.”
Saying this, he began to dance.
