Sri Panca-tattva
Lord Krishna Caitanya surrounded (from left to right) by His avatara (Advaita Acarya), His expansion (Lord Nityananda), His manifest internal energy (Sri Gadadhara), and His perfect devotee (Sri Srivasa). These five tattvas incarnate with Lord Caitanya Mahaprabhu, and thus the Lord executes His sankirtana movement with great pleasure.
Lord Caitanya and His associates danced again and again and thus made it easier to drink nectarean love of Godhead. (Adi-lila 2, p. 17)
The characteristics of Krishna are understood to be a storehouse of transcendental love. Although that storehouse of love certainly came with Krishna when He was present, it was sealed. But when Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu came with His other associates of the Panca-tattva, they broke the seal and plundered the storehouse to taste transcendental love for Krishna. The more they tasted it, the more their thirst for it grew. Sri Panca-tattva themselves danced again and again and thus made it easier to drink nectarean love of Godhead.
