Dear Maharajas and Prabhus,

Dandavat Pranams.

 

I am trying to find the source of the following Bengali paya verse:

 

adyäpiha sei lélä kare gaura-räya

kono kono bhägyavän dekhibäre päya

-------------

adyapiha sei lila kare gaura-raya

kono kono bhagyavan dekhibare paya

 

There is a nearly identical verse found in the Gaudiya Mission Caitanya

Bhagavat (madhya 23.513). Which leads us to suspect that the above may be

from a different version of Caitanya Bhagavat. The only other version I have

access to is the one published by Radhagovinda Nath and the verse is not

found there.

 

Srila Prabhupada quotes it exactly as above in one conversation but the BBT

devotees could not find the reference. It is also quoted exactly as above by

Srila Bhakti Pramod Puri Maharaja in some of his Bengali articles and has

been similarly quoted by our Guru Maharaja Srila Gour Govinda Swami both

without giving any reference.

 

If you have any idea where this verse is from please let me know.

 

Das anudas, Madhavananda Das
