	BANGLAPEDIA: Krisnadasa Kaviraja
		Krishnadasa Kaviraja was a Vaisnava devotee living in Vrindavana during the last half of the 16th century and best known as the author of the most theologically significant hagiography of Krishna Chaitanya (1478-1533), the chaitanya charitamrita.
		Without citing their sources, scholars have generally accepted that Krishnadasa was born sometime between 1517 and 1528, that his father was Bhagiratha, an Ayurvedic phyisician, and his mother Sunanda, both whom died when he was very young, leaving him and his younger brother Shyamananda to be raised by relatives.
		Krishnadasa reports one incident where during a kirtana session his brother was in conflict with the prominent Vaisnava devotee Minaketana Ramadasa over the relative virtues of Chaitanya and Nityananda, much to the humiliation of Krishnadasa (CC 1.5.139-58).

		We need not go much more back in time to note that Srila Thakura Bhaktivinoda accepted diksa from Vipin Bihari Goswami, and yet is was staunch follower of Srila Jagannatha dasa Babaji, entirely dedicated to his precepts.
		Srila Thakura Narottama accepted diksa from Srila Lokanatha Goswami, but there is not a slightest doubt of the fact that he is among the most resplendent followers of the six Gosvamis of Vrindavana, as is Srila Krishnadasa Kaviraja Goswami, who is also not initiated by them.

		Among them, two names that are still spoken of with a mixture of awe and reverence among textile aficionados are those of Gautam and Gira Sarabhai, who built, years ago, the dazzling collection that has its home in the Calico Museum of Textiles at Ahmedabad.
		Rai Krishnadasa, that man of vision from Benares, might have had many other interests, such as Indian painting and Hindi literature, but when he held a great textile in his hand, one could see a different glint in his eyes, sense a flutter in his heart.
		For some time now, one has also been hearing of the Shahs of Surat — Prafulbhai, and his wife, Shilpa — for whom collecting Indian textiles is something of a junoon, as they say, an unmaada.
