যে কাজীর বাতাস না লয সাধু-জনে পাইলেই মাত্র জাতি লয সেই-ক্ষণে হেন কাজী দুর্বার দেখিলে জাতি লয হেন জনে কৃপা-দৃষ্টি কৈলা মহাশয হেন জন পাসরিল সব হিংসা-ধর্ম ইহারে সে বলি—‘কৃষ্ণ’-আবেশের কর্ম ॥ ৪১৪-৪১৬ ॥

ये काजीर वातास ना लय साधु-जने पाइलेइ मात्र जाति लय सेइ-क्षणे हेन काजी दुर्बार देखिले जाति लय हेन जने कृपा-दृष्टि कैला महाशय हेन जन पासरिल सब हिंसा-धर्म इहारे से बलि—‘कृष्ण’-आवेशेर कर्म ॥ ४१४-४१६ ॥

ye kājīra vātāsa nā laya sādhu-jane pāilei mātra jāti laya sei-kṣaṇe hena kājī durbāra dekhile jāti laya hena jane kṛpā-dṛṣṭi kailā mahāśaya hena jana pāsarila saba hiṃsā-dharma ihāre se bali—‘kṛṣṇa’-āveśera karma || 414-416 ||

ye kajira vatasa na laya sadhu-jane pailei matra jati laya sei-ksane hena kaji durbara dekhile jati laya hena jane krpa-drsti kaila mahasaya hena jana pasarila saba himsa-dharma ihare se bali—‘krsna’-avesera karma (414-416)

English translation:

(414-416) Saintly persons did not want to be touched by the air that touched the Kazi, for they felt that such contact would make them lose their caste. Yet Gadādhara dāsa Mahāśaya glanced mercifully on that most sinful Kazi, who took away the caste of any Hindu he encountered.

Commentary: Gauḍīya-bhāṣya by Śrīla Bhaktisiddhānta Sarasvatī Ṭhākura:

When such a person gives up his envious nature, it is to be understood that this is the potency of Kṛṣṇa consciousness.

The Kazi of Eṅḍiyādaha was most sinful. Whenever he got the opportunity he would take away the caste of those who did not respect

him. Śrī Gadādhara dāsa destroyed the envious nature of such classes of people. Therefore he displayed the potency of Kṛṣṇa consciousness.
