"On the shore of the broad blue ocean Gadadhar Pandit used to read Srimad Bhagavatam to Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu, who was suffering from the great internal pain of separation from Himself (Krishna). Gadadhar Pandit supplied the wine of Krishna-lila to intoxicate his afflicted friend and give Him relief. As he read, tears would fall from his eyes like flower offerings onto the pages of Srimad Bhagavatam. May the pleasure of that brilliant personality, Gadadhar Pandit, the best of the Goswamis, be my only object in writing this book."

(Composed by Srila B.R. Sridhar Dev-Goswami Maharaj)

Sri Gadadhar Pandit's Life in Puri
A special discourse given by His Divine Grace Srila Bhakti Sundar Govinda Dev-Goswami Maharaj for Sri Gaudiya Darshan, 1995, dwelling on "Puri Sri Chaitanya Saraswat Math" and "Jagannathdev and His Dham."

Pandit Sri Gadadhar Goswami [Posted at Sri Gaudiya Darshan]
Srila Bhakti Raksak Sridhar Dev-Goswami Maharaj's article on Srila Gadadhar Pandit's paramount sacrifice: "Pandit Goswami's life is a special offering of silent and complete self-sacrifice to his beloved. Only those who can taste unprecedented joy by appreciating the wonder within the ornament of contradiction in seeing the bag of a beggar on Laksmi Devi’s shoulder are fit to appreciate the extraordinary glory of Srimat Pandit Goswami's unprecedented personality..."

 

পণ্ডিত শ্রীগদাধর গোস্বামী ["Pandit Sri Gadadhar Goswami," the original Bengali article]

On this day we are bound to give the sorrowful news that a group of Indian devotees from Nabadwip has got into a car accident that led to the loss of Sripad Santosh Krishna Prabhu, a senior servitor and secretary of Sri Chaitanya Saraswat Math, as well as Vikash Prabhu of Uluberia (it is known that all other devotees who were in the car are hospitalised, out of danger).

Taking the blessings and feet dust of Sri Gurupadpadma Om Vishnupad Srila Bhakti Nirmal Acharya Maharaj, the preaching party left Nabadwip today in the morning and was on the way to a preaching programme in Midnapore; the accident happened as they were in the outskirts of Kolkata.

The Vaishnava-seva will be held on Thursday, 9 June, and we are humbly inviting all devotees of our Sri Chaitanya Saraswat Math, as well as other Gaudiya Missions, to please join us on this day.

Satisfaction
"Preaching is necessary. How do so many devotees come for the parikrama? We invite them—they do not know anything about Mahaprabhu, but we just invite them, 'Come and see.' They listen to Hari-katha and get some sukriti and through that become devotees."

Sanatan Goswami:
Finishing Visaya
'Mahaprabhu was very happy, 'I am very happy to see his vairagyata, his renunciation. He was a chief minister, but now he suddenly wears old poor clothes and goes begging house to house. Sanatan is not shy, not ashamed—he has no ego.''

 

Sri Sri Prema-Vivarta
“Consider your friends and relatives servants of Krishna, care for them as well as you care for yourself, and speak to them sweetly.”

If you want to see your Guru, your Guru's form, you can see him by his mercy,
and you must understand that chastity is necessary—chastity is above all.
