The Power of Lord Nityaananda

Following is taken from Chaitanya Mangal-

   When Lord Chaitanya entered Radha-desh, He didn't hear anyone chanting Krishna's names. He felt so upset by this that He decided to drown Himself in the water. The devotees became filled with anxiety and thought, "What will happen if Lord Chaitanya retums to Goloka?" Then Shri Nityananda exclaimed, "By My own power I will make sure Shri Chaitanya stays here !"
   Meanwhile, some local boys were tending cows nearby. To secretly please His Lord Chaitanya, Nityananda Avadhuta entered the hearts of those cowherd boys inspiring them to chant the holy names of Haft. When that sweet sound touched Gaurahari's ears, He jumped up and ran toward the cowherd boys. Shri Chaitanya held their hands and encouraged them, "Chant! Chant! Chant! May the Lord bless you, for you have enabled Me to hear His sweet holy names."
   Lord Chaitanya floated in the blissful ocean of Krishna-prema. He took madhukari [begged food] from one house. He didn't notice the passing of days and nights. Three days later He drank some water and took a little prasada.
