In the society, in villages still, if one is ostracized, nobody will smoke with him. Hookah. Hookah means smoking. And pāni means not to accept his water hookah pāni bandh. So that is ostracization. That was taken against Sanātana Gosvāmī. They were not gosvāmī at that time. Caitanya Mahāprabhu accepted them. That is Caitanya Mahāprabhu's special grace.

Pradyumna: "They belonged to the highly-situated sārasvata-brāhmin community, but they were ostracized due to their acceptance of ministerial posts in the government of Hussain Shah. It is the grace of Lord Caitanya that He accepted these two exalted personalities as His disciples . . ."

Prabhupāda: The brāhmiṇ community was so strong that because acceptance of service is the business of the śūdra . . . the brāhmiṇs, they would not accept anyone's service. The kṣatriyas, they would not accept anyone's service. And the vaiśyas also. They should live independently: brāhmiṇs, by culture of Vedic knowledge; kṣatriyas by exacting taxes from the citizens; and vaiśyas by trade, agriculture. They should live.

To serve one is the business of the dog. That is mentioned in Bhāgavata. So if there is dire necessity, a brāhmiṇ can accept the profession of a kṣatriya or the, even the profession of a vaiśya, but not the profession of a śūdra. But at the present moment, because everyone accepts the profession of śūdra, therefore śāstra says, kalau śūdra-sambhavaḥ.

Here is the example, that Sākara Mallika, he was brāhmiṇ, sārasvata-brāhmiṇ. But because he accepted . . . they were learned brāhmiṇs, not fools. Very good scholar in Sanskrit and Arabian language, still, because they accepted service in the Muhammadan government, they were rejected. Immediately: no. Punishment. That is punishment. In Hindi it is called hookah pāni bandh.

In the society, in villages still, if one is ostracized, nobody will smoke with him. Hookah. Hookah means smoking. And pāni means not to accept his water hookah pāni bandh. So that is ostracization. That was taken against Sanātana Gosvāmī. They were not gosvāmī at that time. Caitanya Mahāprabhu accepted them. That is Caitanya Mahāprabhu's special grace.
