Srila Srinivasa Acarya Disappearance
Srila Srinivasa Acarya was born in 1517 AD, on the full moon day of the month of Vaishakha, in the village of Chakhandi, which lies just north of Agradvipa in the district of Nadiya
His parents were Gangadhara Bhattacharya and Lakshmi Priya. Gangadhara was a great devotee of Shri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu. Later people used to call him as Chaitanya Das
He is chiefly remembered as the illustrious disciple of Gopala Bhatta Goswami and Jiva Goswami. His achievements include delivering the writings of the Gosvamis from Vrindavana to Bengal, converting King Birhambir to Vaishnavism, and originating the Manohar Shoy style of kirtana. At Kheturi, Bengal, he co-organized the first Gaura Purnima Festival (celebrating the anniversary of Shri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu’s appearance in this world), which Narottama, Shyamananda, and thousands of other Vaishnavas attended.
