  the life of suradasa   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
According to Goswami Hariraya, Sura was born in a village of the name of Sihi near Delhi in a poor Sarasvata brahmin family [we have already given reasons for discarding this caste factor].
Due to Krishna's favour, Sura was born in the family of a brahmin in Mathura.
Sura doesn't have even one verse of praise or reverence for Vallabha in Surasagara, and in truth he did not believe in anyone who could intercede with Krishna on his behalf He threw himself completely at his mercy.

In Sura AlamNashrah: "And We exalted your renown for you."That is Though the enemies are trying to defame you throughout the country We on the contrary have arranged to exalt your name and fame.
