English	Wandering in great ecstatic love in the Jagannātha-vallabha gardens, Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu suddenly saw Kṛṣṇa beneath an aśoka tree, but when Lord Caitanya ran very swiftly toward Him, Kṛṣṇa smiled and disappeared.
English	EN CC Antya 5 1975: “One full-moon night in the month of Vaiśākha (April and May), Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu went to a garden. The Lord, along with His devotees, entered one of the nicest gardens, called Jagannātha-vallabha. In the garden were fully blossomed trees and creepers exactly like those in Vṛndāvana. Bumblebees and birds like the śuka, śārī and pika talked with one another. A mild breeze was blowing, carrying the fragrance of aromatic flowers. The breeze had become a guru and was teaching all the trees and creepers how to dance. Brightly illuminated by the full moon, the trees and creepers glittered in the light. The six seasons, especially spring, seemed present there. Seeing the garden, Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, was very happy. In this atmosphere, the Lord had His associates sing a verse from the Gīta-govinda, as He danced and wandered about with them. As He thus wandered around every tree and creeper, He came beneath an aśoka tree and suddenly saw Lord Kṛṣṇa. When He saw Kṛṣṇa, Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu began running very swiftly, but Kṛṣṇa smiled and disappeared.”
