Sri Caitanya-caritamrta

CC Madhya-lila

The buds of those lotus flowers are the pastimes of Kṛṣṇa, and they are edibles for the swanlike devotees.
CC Madhya 25.274, Translation:

The devotees who have a relationship with Kṛṣṇa are like the swans and cakravāka birds who play in that forest of lotus flowers. The buds of those lotus flowers are the pastimes of Kṛṣṇa, and they are edibles for the swanlike devotees. Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa is always engaged in His transcendental pastimes; therefore the devotees, following in the footsteps of Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu, can always eat those lotus buds, for they are the pastimes of the Lord.
