Sri Kaliya Krishna Dasa Thakura
|
|
Kaviraja Goswami writes (CC Adi 11.37) that Kaliya Krishna Dasa Thakura was one of the principle devotees of Nityananda Prabhu. He knew nothing other than the lotus feet of Sri Nityananda Prabhu. According to Kavi Karnapura's Gaura-Ganodesha-Dipika, he was one of the 12 gopals in Vrindavana, and in the pastimes of Krishna in Vrindavana was known as Labhanga, one of Krishna's cowherd boy friends. His birthplace is in the Bardhaman (Burdwan) district of West Bengal within a short distance from the Railway station at Katwa, at the village called Akai Hatta. This village is situated on the old king's road between Nabadwipa and Katwa. Akai Hatta is a very small village. On the twelfth day of the dark moon in the month
of Caitra, Sri Kaliya Krishna Dasa Thakura disappeared. This is not
the same Kaliya Krishna dasa who accompanied Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu
to South India. At present, Kaliya Krishnadas's descendents live in
different holy places in Bengal. |
