A solid reference would be useful. Apart from that, we could be entering an area that needs some careful research. The "Nadiya nagari" or "Gauranga nagari" apasampradaya quote many so-called references from Narahari Sarkar and Locan dasa to support their apasiddhantas. Now these spurious literatures are entering the Vaisnava world in English translations. No wonder that Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati Thakura spent his whole life fighting against this nonsense, or that both he and Srila Prabhupada were very particular about what their disciples should read. Add to that the new speculations and we have a lot of trouble. What was that about Gadadhara Pandita being the form of Radha after Krsna stole Her prema (??) and that Gadadhara Pandita was born in a desert (??). Mostly devotees nowadays seem to have the outlook that, "If it appeals to me, it must be ok." Very dangerous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
