eta bali’ vandilā haridāsera caraṇa
haridāsa kahe, — “kara kṛṣṇa-saṅkīrtana”
eta bali’ — saying this; vandilā — worshiped; haridāsera caraṇa — the lotus feet of Haridāsa Ṭhākura; haridāsa kahe — Haridāsa said; kara — just perform; kṛṣṇa-saṅkīrtana — chanting of the holy name of Kṛṣṇa.
After speaking in this way, Māyā worshiped the lotus feet of Haridāsa Ṭhākura, who initiated her by saying, “Just perform chanting of the Hare Kṛṣṇa mahā-mantra.”
Now even Māyā wanted to be favored by Haridāsa Ṭhākura. Therefore Haridāsa Ṭhākura formally initiated her by asking her to chant the Hare Kṛṣṇa mahā-mantra.
