Meghera-Cara

Information – This place is between Belpukur and Sonadanga villages.

Once while Caitanya Mahāprabhu was performing kīrtana, clouds assembled in the sky, and the Lord, by His own will, immediately stopped them from pouring rain.
PURPORT
In this connection Śrīla Bhaktivinoda Ṭhākura says that once when Lord Caitanya was performing saṅkīrtana a short way from the village, some clouds appeared overhead. By the supreme will of the Lord, the clouds were asked to disperse, and they did. Because of this incident, that place is still known as Meghera-cara. Since the course of the Ganges has now changed, the village of the name Belapukhuriyā, which was formerly situated in a different place, called Tāraṇavāsa, has now become known as Meghera-cara. The Madhya-khaṇḍa of Śrīla Locana dāsa Ṭhākura’s Caitanya-maṅgala also relates that once at the end of the day, when evening clouds assembled overhead and thundered threateningly, all the Vaiṣṇavas were very much afraid. But the Lord took His karatālas in His hands and personally began chanting the Hare Kṛṣṇa mantra, looking up toward the sky as if to direct the demigods in the higher planets. Thus all the assembled clouds dispersed, and as the sky became clear, with the moon rising, the Lord began dancing very happily with His jubilant and satisfied devotees.
(CC Adi 17.89)

The characteristics of Mādhavendra Purī are most wonderful; he fell unconscious just by seeing a dark cloud.
COMMENTARY
The megha, or “cloud” is an uddīpana, or reminder, of Kṛṣṇa, whose complexion resembles a newly formed cloud.
(Śrī Caitanya-bhāgavata, Ādi-khaṇḍa 9.175)

The ecstatic love of Mādhava Purī is beyond description. He would lose consciousness upon seeing a cloud.
COMMENTARY
The ecstatic love of Śrī Mādhavendra is extraordinary. When ordinary people see a cloud, they think it may rain, and nice crops will grow, and the earth will cool. But Mādhavendra Purī saw the complexion of Kṛṣṇa within the cloud, and he became so absorbed in thoughts of Kṛṣṇa that he became completely aloof from the propensity to enjoy this external world and lost consciousness.
(Śrī Caitanya-bhāgavata, Antya-khaṇḍa 4.437)

The present day village of Vāmana-pukura was then known as Belpukura, but when this ancient village of Belpukura was shifted to Meghāra-caḍā at the end of the seventeenth century it became known as Vāmana-pukura.
(Śrī Caitanya-bhāgavata, Adi-khaṇḍa 1.7 Commentary)
