English	EN CC Antya 3 1975: “It was a steady, long-standing rule that Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu would lie down to rest after lunch and Govinda would come to massage His legs. Then Govinda would honor the remnants of food left by Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu. This time when the Lord lay down, He occupied the entire doorway. Govinda could not enter the room, and therefore he made the following request. ‘Kindly turn on one side. Let me pass to enter the room.’ However, the Lord replied, ‘I don't have the strength to move My body.’ Govinda made his request again and again, but the Lord replied, ‘I cannot move My body.’ Govinda repeatedly requested, ‘I want to massage Your legs,’ but the Lord said, ‘Do it or don't do it. It depends upon your mind.’ Then Govinda spread the Lord’s wrapper over the Lord’s body and in this way entered the room by crossing over Him.”
