here are some questions about Lord Sri Krishna Caitanya Mahaprabhu:

 

> - Was His name Caitanya or in CB is written Chaitanya -

> what is right? -

 

Caitanya is transliterated spelling and Chaitanya is english spelling.

 

> Srivas Thakur wasn't a young person, he was a grown up

> man when Nimai was born, but at the picturs of Sri Panca Tattva he looks

> like a young devotee.

 

That is the artists interpretation. He was older, but devotees don't look so

old as they are.

 

> - What is the meaning of Lord's names Gaura-simha,

Lord Sri Krishna Caitanya Mahaprabhu Who is strong like a lion.

 

> Gaura-siromani

 

Gaura means Lord Sri Krishna Caitanya Mahaprabhu and Siromani literally

means "crown jewel" or in that context it means the best of personalities.

 

>, Nagara-bihari? With which pastimes are they connected?

 

Nagara means streets and Bihari means enjoying. So Nagara Bihari means one

who is chanting in the streets Harinama sankirtana.
