Caitanya-caritāmṛta 8.79
sei likhi, madana-gopāla ye likhāya kāṣṭhera puttalī yena kuhake nācāya
[sei likhi, madana-gopaala ye likhaaya kaashthera puttalee yena kuhake naachaaya]
Blended reading (Sanskrit + English inline)
sei likhi, madana-gopāla ye likhāya kāṣṭhera puttalī yena kuhake nācāya
As a wooden doll is made to dance by a magician, I write as Madana-gopāla orders me to do so.
Purport
This is the position of a pure devotee. One should not take any responsibility on his own but should be a soul surrendered to the Supreme Personality of Godhead, who will then give him dictation as the caittya-guru, or the spiritual master within. The Supreme Personality of Godhead is pleased to guide a devotee from within and without. From within He guides him as the Supersoul, and from without He guides him as the spiritual master.
— A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupāda
