VASUDEVA GHOSH

Krsna lila - Rasollasa

Vasudeva Ghosh, an intimate associate of Lord Caitanya, was known for his kirtana. Sri Caitanya-caritamrta says that when Vasudeva Ghosh led kirtana, even wood and stone would melt upon hearing it. He composed many songs about Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu. Vasudeva Ghosh and his brothers Govinda and Madhava are eternal associates of Lord Caitanya and Lord Nityananda Prabhu.(See Sri Caitanya-caritamrta, Adi-lila 10.115, 11.14-15, 11.19 and 11.88.)
