Lord organized Harinam Sankirtana in Jaganath puri:
Caitanya Mahaprabhu danced in the middle Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu  divided the sankirtana into four chanting parties. In each group there were eight mirdangas and thirty two pairs of karatalas and while they began simultaneously chanting the holy name of the Lord, Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu danced in the middle as soon as the simultaneous vibrations of the combined sankirtana resounded all good fortune was immediately awakened and the sound projected throughout the fourteen worlds.

From very beginning everyone become over flooded with ecstatic love , and all  the  residents  of Janganth Puri came running whoever came there and  witnessed the Lord’s sankirtana performance become highly astonished and everyone agreed that never before had they seen such chanting ,  dancing and exhibition of ecstatic love of God.

After circumambulating  the temple, the Lord stopped for a while ,and as all four parties chanted very loudly. He danced ,  jumping high. Then  , after having danced for a long time the Lord stood still and ordered four great personalities to begin dancing.

Thereafter , as Nityananda Prabhu, Advaita Acharya, Vakreshwar Pandita and Shrivasa Thakura danced in each of the four sankirtan parties, the lord watched them while standing in the middle. At this time Sri Caitanya Maha Prahu performed a miracle for on all sides , each of the four dancer perceived that he was looking directly at him. Lord manifested himself in the way because of his great eagerness to see the dancing of all four great personalities at once. Lord watched the dancing everyone saw him to be facing them directly.

When some one come nearly while dancing. Lord would tightly embrace him and upon seeing this wonderful display embrace him and upon seeing this wonderful display of transcendental ecstasy , all the residents of Jaganath Puri floated in the great ocean of the love of god .
