From Srila Prabhupada:

So the activities of Advaita Acarya means that He's isvara. He called Caitanya Mahaprabhu to come down. That is isvara. You cannot call the Supreme Personality of Godhead to come down. That is not possible. But isvara, or one who has attained the power of attorney from isvara, he can do that. It is no otherwise possible. Otherwise, it is impossible. Krsna-sakti vina nahe nama pracara. We have to receive the authority from Krsna. Then it is possible to preach the cult of Hare Krsna movement. That means Isvara, and anyone who attains the power of attorney from Isvara, he's also isvara. That is called power of attorney. He can act on behalf of the proprietor. That is possible. So Advaita, Advaita Acarya did it. He inaugurated this Krsna consciousness movement. When He saw that the people are so much misled that simply they are busy for the bodily necessities of life and completely have forgotten Krsna, He became sympathetic. That is Vaisnava behavior. Vaisnavas, they are the best friend of the society, best friend, Vaisnava -- "Big Chumps, Big Controllers," Caitanya Caritamrta, Adi 1.12, Mayapur, April 5th, 1975
