six Gosvamis of Vrndavan | The Hare Krishna Movement

We spent the last two nights in Jaipur, which is home to some of the deities of Vrindavan that were brought here for safekeeping during the Mughal invasions. It was our good fortune the have visited many of these temples, and had darshan with the Vrindavan deities, here in Jaipur.

The Seven Goswami Temples of Vrindavan are:

Radha Damodar
Radha Shyamsundar
Radha Govind Dev
Radha Gokulananda

Teachings to Rūpa Gosvāmī

Śrīla Rūpa Gosvāmī, the younger brother of Sanātana Gosvāmī, went to Prayāga, the modern city of Allahabad, with his younger brother Vallabha. When the two brothers heard that Lord Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu was staying there, they both became very happy and went to see the Lord. At that time the Lord was on His way to visit the temple Bindumādhava. On the way to the temple, the Lord was chanting and dancing, and thousands of people were following Him. Some of these people were crying, and some were laughing. Some were dancing, and some were singing, and some were falling on the ground, offering obeisances to the Lord. In all cases, all of them were roaring the holy name of Kṛṣṇa. It is said that in spite of being at the confluence of the rivers Ganges and Yamunā, Prayāga was never flooded until the appearance of Caitanya Mahāprabhu, at which time the city was overflooded by love of Kṛṣṇa.
