English translation:
(63-064) Śrīvāsa’s crying could not be checked. Although Śrīvāsa was most dear to Lord Caitanya and he purified the entire world, the sinful students conspired together and then dragged him outside.
Commentary: Gauḍīya-bhāṣya by Śrīla Bhaktisiddhānta Sarasvatī Ṭhākura:
Because Śrīvāsa’s continuous crying disturbed the students’ studies, they were unable to understand that Śrīvāsa, who was Śrī Caitanya’s most intimate associate, was the deliverer of the entire world. The suddenly arising symptoms of ecstatic love found in the spiritual body of Śrīvāsa brought all kinds of purification to this world, yet because the students could not understand this, they forcibly grabbed Śrīvāsa and threw him out of the classroom.
