ithe tarka kari keho nā kara saṁśaya |
kṛṣṇera acintya-śakti ei-mata haya ||
(Caitanya-caritāmṛta: 1.17.305)
“No one should engage in argument and foster doubt in this regard. Kṛṣṇa’s inconceivable śakti is like this.”
acintyāḥ khalu ye bhāvā na tāṁs tarkeṇa yojayet |
prakṛtibhyaḥ paraṁ yac ca tad acintyasya lakṣaṇam ||
(Mahābhārata: 6.5.12, 12.5.22; cited in Bhakti-rasāmṛta-sindhu: 2.5.93; Laghu Bhāgavatāmṛta: 1.5.111; Tattva Sandarbha: 11, and Caitanya-caritāmṛta 1.17.308)
“Do not assess inconceivable states of being (bhāvas) with argumentation; that which is beyond the [material] elements is the characteristic of the inconceivable.”
