- Caitanya Mahaprabhu presented himself in this way: I am a great fool & do not have knowledge of right & wrong. In order to understand the real meaning of the Vedanta-sutra, I never followed the explanation of the Sankara-sampradaya or Mayavadi sannyasis
- Caitanya Mahaprabhu replied (to Prakasananda Sarasvati) that, "Sir, if I reply your question candidly, please do not be sorry." "No, I am not sorry. We are prepared." - Because My Guru Maharaja saw Me, I am the greatest fool
- Caitanya Mahaprabhu, He said that, "My spiritual master found Me a great fool." Caitanya Mahaprabhu is not a fool, but it is the good qualification of a disciple to remain a fool before the spiritual master
