उस समय आपको आचार्य नियुक्त किया गया था।

श्रील भक्ति सिद्धान्त सरस्वती गोस्वामी ठाकुर प्रभुपाद जी बताते हैं कि भगवान श्रीचैतन्य महाप्रभुजी के प्रिय श्रील रूप गोस्वामी व श्रील सनातन गोस्वामी जी के छोटे भाई के पुत्र श्रील जीव गोस्वामी जी को उनकी वैष्णवता और उनकी विद्वता को देखकर उड़ीसा, बंगाल तथा मथुरा मण्डल के गौड़ीय वैष्णव सम्प्रदाय का सर्वश्रेष्ठ आचार्य नियुक्त किया गया था। आप सभी को श्रीश्रीगौर सुन्दर की प्रचारित शुद्ध-भक्ति की बात समझाते व सभी से हरि भजन कराते।
आपने बहुत से ग्रन्थ लिखे। उनमें से एक है -- भक्ति सन्दर्भ।   आप उसमें बताते हैं - इस कलियुग में कीर्तन भक्ति के अतिरिक्त अन्य और भक्ति साधनों का अनुष्ठान करना हो तो उन्हें कीर्तन भक्ति के सहयोग से ही करना चाहिये।     यद्यप्यन्या भक्तिः कलौ कर्तव्या, तदा कीर्तनाख्य - भक्ति - संयोगेनैव । श्रील जीव गोस्वामी जी ने ही सबको यह बताया की हरिनाम के जप से कीर्तन का 100 गुना ज्यादा फायदा होता है। तो क्यों न, कीर्तन किया जाये! श्रील हरिदास ठाकुर जी नित्यप्रति जो तीन लाख हरिनाम किया करते थे, उसमें पहला 1 लाख हरिनाम उच्च स्वर से किया करते थे।

www.secretsofdevotion.com In the early years of this century, Srila Prabhupada Bhaktisiddhanta Saraswati Goswami Thakura set into motion a devotional revival that rapidly spread through Bengal, India, and eventually the world. He put into question the very foundations of present-day theistic thought in a way that has little comparison anywhere in the spiritual record, East or West. Through him, the world was awakened to the teachings of Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu and the movement of pure devotion, suddha bhakti. In orchestrating this modern bhakti revolution, Srila Prabhupada (Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Saraswati Thakura) gathered some of the greatest spiritual luminaries in contemporary history into his circle. Such a convergence of exalted spiritual personalities can only be compared to the coming together of Sri Chaitanya’s direct followers in the sixteenth century. One of the devotional giants who entered Srila Prabhupada’s orbit was His Divine Grace Bhakti Promode Puri Goswami M

Shyamananda Prabhu

 Feeling very sad (dukhi) over losing several children before his birth, his parents named him Dukhi Krishna Dasa. Upon taking diksha from Hrdaya Chaitanya he became known as Krishna Dasa. In Vrindavana, he joined Narottama Dasa Thakura and Shrinivasa Acharya to study the Goswami granthas under Shri Jiva Goswami.    Many "ankle bell stories" describe how Krishna Dasa received Radharani's mercy, the name Shyamananda, and his unique tilaka mark. Shripad B.V. Narayana Maharaja gives this account in Navadwipa Dhama Parikrama:    "While living in Vrindavana, Krishna Dasa regularly swept the streets before dawn. He performed this humble service so that the Vaishnavas would not hurt their feet while walking to the Temples. One morning he found a captivatingly beautiful golden ankle bracelet. When Lalita and Vishakha-sakhis asked for the bracelet Krishna Dasa said he would only give it to the original owner.    "Blindfolding Krishna Dasa, the gopis brought him to Sh
