English translation:

(102-104) Please listen to this narration in the Ādi-khaṇḍa of the holy places visited by Lord Nityānanda, who only the most degraded sinful atheists would dare criticize. That Lord who delivered the entire universe is nothing but an ocean of mercy. Only by His mercy can we know the truth about Lord Caitanya. In fact, the glories of Lord Caitanya are manifested through Him.

Commentary: Gauḍīya-bhāṣya by Śrīla Bhaktisiddhānta Sarasvatī Ṭhākura:

Śrī Nityānanda Prabhu exhibited compassion towards the fallen, averse living entities and thus delivered the entire world. Being bereft of receiving His mercy, only wicked, sinful atheists criticized Him.

Only Śrī Nityānanda has made the truth regarding Śrī Caitanya known to the world. Without His mercy, no one is able to enter into the glories of Śrī Caitanya by independent endeavor.
