For argument's sake let's assume it was written in 1300 AD. My question is who wrote it. Was it Vyasadeva in Badarikahrama? How many chapters it originally has? Does anybody know? On what findings does the author say that it was written in 1300 AD. I feel this discussion on BS is very very imp. Mahanidhi Maharaj was telling me yesterday that people from other sampradayas are challenging him on the authencity of BS because we quote frequently from it. Ofcourse the greatest evidence for us is LC accepted it. Sri Caitanya mahaprabhor matam idam tatradaro na parah... But for convincing the outsiders!
