An interesting passage in Sri Chaitanya Mangala by Lochana Das, not found in the Gaudiya Matha edition or the English translation of Subhag Swami, but in an edition I have from Akshaya Library this passage might be inserted after Visvambhar receives a brahman's curse, and his absorption in the identity of Balarama. Sachi is distressed on learning of the brahman's curse pronounced on her son, in order to comfort her he says,
Dear mother, listen and heed what I say, You have no reason to grieve in this way;
No offence have I to that brahman made, And without cause a curse on me he laid.
But curses pronounced without reason due; If there is no offence, what can it do?
Know this for certain, dear mother, forsooth, For verily in this I speak the truth.
