Rajashekhara Dasa
From the book “Chaurasi-kosa Vraja Mandala Parikrama”:
This is the place near Keshi Ghata where the tooth (dant) of Gadadhara Pandita was placed in samadhi. Gadadhara Pandita was one of Lord Chaitanya’s childhood friends and remained in the association of the Lord throughout his life. He was one of the celebrated members of Lord Chaitanya’s inner circle of intimate associates known as the Pancha-tattva. According to Gaura-ganoddesha-dipika Gadadhara Pandita is Shrimati Radharani in Krishna’s Vrindavana pastimes. In a purport to Chaitanya-charitamrita (Adi 10.15) it says, “Gadadhara Pandita is simultaneously an incarnation of Shrimati Radharani and Lalita-sakhi.
