Sri Krishna Dasa Kaviraja Gosvami

He appeared near Katwa in Jhamatapura (Bardhaman) in Bengal. He went to Vrindavana after Lord Nityananda told him in a dream, are are krishnadasa, na karaha bhaya, vrindavana yaha tanha, sarva larya haya. “O my dear Krishna dasa, do not be afraid. Go to Vrindavana. For there you will attain all things.” (Caitanya Caritamrita, Adi 5.195)

It is believed that he took diksa initiation from either Raghunatha Dasa Gosvami or Raghunatha Bhatta Gosvami. He lived next to Syama Kunda (next to Radha Kunda) by Manasa Pavana Ghata. He wrote Caitanya Caritamrita, the life history of Lord Caitanya after hearing many of the pastimes from Raghunatha Dasa Gosvami. His samadhi and bhajana kutir are at Radha Kunda.
