Haridisa Ṭhākura made Siti Caitanya Mahaprabhusit down in front ofhim, and then he fixed his eyes, like two bumblebees, on the lotus face of the Lord. He held the lotus feet of the
Lord on his heart and then took the dust of the feet of all the devotees present and put it on his head. As he began to chant the holy name of Śrī Kṛṣṇa Caitanya again and again, he drank in the sweetness of the Lord's face, and tears constantly glided down from his eyes. While chanting the holy name of Śrī Kṛṣṇa Caitanya, Haridāsa Ṭhākura gave up his life air and left his body.
Seeing the wonderful death of Haridāsa Ṭhākura by his own will, which was just like a great mystic yogi's, everyone remembered the passing away of Bhīṣma. There was a tumultuous noise as they all chanted the holy names "Hari" and "Kṛṣṇa." Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu became overwhelmed with ecstatic love. The Lord raised the body of Haridāsa and placed it on His lap. Then He began to dance in the courtyard in great ecstatic love. Because of Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu's ecstatic love, all the devotees were helpless, and in ecstatic love they also began to dance and chant congregationally. Lord Caitanya danced for some time, and then Svarūpa Dāmodara Gosvāmī informed Him of other rituals for the body of Ṭhākura Haridāsa.
The body of Haridāsa Ṭhākura was then raised onto a carrier that resembled an airship and taken to the sea, accompanied by congregational chanting. Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu danced in front of the procession, and Vakreśvara Pandita, along with the other devotees, chanted and danced behind Him.
