Patit Pavan Nityananda

To see Mahaprabhu’s Pastimes as the rescuer of the conditioned souls, the general people were very astonished, and they glorified Mahaprabhu so much. Mahaprabhu said to Jagai and Madhai,

prabhu bale, — “torā āra nā karis pāpa”
jagāi mādhāi bale, — “āra nāre vāpa”

«Jagai and Madhai, if you do not do this again, and you leave behind the activities you did before, I can forgive your offences forever. From this day you try to practise Krishna consciousness, and you will be so glorious. Now chant ‘Hare Krishna!’»

Jagai and Madhai said, «Ara nare vapa: we will never do that again. You have excused us. We will follow what You say as our duty.» Jagai and Madhai then asked Mahaprabhu, «Please give some service to us and accept us as Your servitors.» Mahaprabhu and Nityananda Prabhu said, «You chant ‘Hare Krishna’, give this Hare Krishna mahamantra to everyone, and do Vaisnava-seva by sweeping the pathway by the Ganges and keeping it clean. Then with a clean heart you can proceed. You will have no need to fear Yamaraj.» Jagai and Madhai did that every day, and the place where they swept is still known as Madhai Ghat. Our parikrama party crosses the Ganges at that place. All the demigods danced to see the rescue of Jagai and Madhai. All the Pastimes of Nityananda Prabhu and Mahaprabhu are for rescuing the conditioned souls, and in Their Pastime of rescuing Jagai and Madhai we can see that Nityananda Prabhu is more merciful than even Mahaprabhu.
