Day and night Narottam prayed, “O my Lord, Gauranga Mahaprabhu, free me from this insane life, family attachment and let me serve You in the company of self-aware Vaisnavas !” His only aspiration became so strong that he was no longer asleep, his mind and heart were completely absorbed in the Lord’s games and His mission.
Narottam found an opportunity to leave. “Now or never,” he decided. Carefully bypassing the guard, he managed to escape into the forest, determined to find a way to the sacred Vrindavan. But to get to Vrindavan, you had to walk through most of India. The gentle and sleek body of the king’s son could hardly bear the hardships of the way, and he began to feel fatigue and hunger. Three days later, his legs were blistered, and at some point from exhaustion, he lost consciousness.
Then Mahaprabhu came to the exhausted Narottam under the guise of a brahmana with golden skin and a pot of milk. Not recognizing Sri Caitanya Himself in the brahmana, Narottam simply fell asleep, again succumbing to exhaustion. Rupa and Sanatana came to him in a dream to cheer him up. “Narottam, soon your suffering will end. Mahaprabhu brought milk to support you. Drink to the bottom and continue on your way to Vrndavana.” When he awoke, all the words of Rupa and Sanatana sounded in his heart, and Narottam burst into tears of happiness.
In the eternal lilas of Krsna, one of the services of Narottam as a manjari is to provide Sri Radha and her closest friends with gopi milk. This time Krishna in the form of Mahaprabhu answered him in the same way, giving milk to his pure devotee. Thinking about these love affairs was what really strengthened Narottam, and soon he continued his way to Vraja with renewed vigor.
