Srila Dhananjaya Pandit Disappearance
Dhananjaya Pandita (1485 circa) was Nityananda Prabhu’s dear servant. He was very renounced and full of love for Krishna. His disappearance is on the eighth day of the bright fortnight, in the month of Kartik (Damodara Masa). Opinions vary about Dhananjaya Pandit’s birthplace and his parentage. In the Gaudiya Vaishnava Abhidhana, it is said that he was born in the village of Jariagrama in Chittagong district on the fifth day of the waxing moon in the month of Chaitra (Vishnu Masa). His father’s name was Shripati Bandopadhyaya and his mother was Kalindi Devi. His wife name was Haripriya.
