Bhugarbha

As there is not much mention of Sri Lokanatha Goswami in Vaisnava literatures, similarly
there is not much mention either of Sri Bhugarbha Goswami, who was his very close friend.
Following Mahaprabhu's order, they both came to live at Vrajadham. Their hearts were
inseparable.

Sri Bhugarbha Goswami was the disciple of Sri Gadadhar Pandit. He in turn had a number
of disciples, namely: Sri Caitanya Das (the pujari of Sri Govinda deva), Sri Mukundananda
Cakravarti, Premi Krsna das, etc.

In the Sr Caitanya-caritamrta, it is mentioned that Sri Bhugarbha das and Sri Bhagavat das
came to Brndavan and took up residence there. [Caitanya Caritamrita Adi 12.81]

In the Gaura-ganoddesa-dipika, Sri Bhugarbha Gosvami's identity as Premamanjari in


Krsna lila, has been given.

His disappearance is on the 14th day of the bright fortnight in the month of Kartik. His
samadhi is near the samadhi of Sri Rupa Gosvami, within the courtyard of Sri Radha-
Damodar temple.

Srila Bhugarbha Gosvami and Srila Lokanath Goswami were one, only their bodies were
different. [Bhakti Ratnakara]
