HH Avadhut Maharaja is singing Srila Bhaktivinod Thakur songs in his home in Sri Godrumdvip. Srila Bhaktivinoda Thakura is an eternal associ ate of Lord Caitanya and his eternal spiritual form is Kamala Manjari. His name was Kedamatha Datta. He later became a District Magistrate (High Court judge) under the British Government. This was the highest position an Indian could hold under British rule. As the District Magistrate in Puri, he was also overseeing the activities of Lord Jagannathas temple. In that position he raised the standard of worship of Lord Jagannatha and also increased the offerings to sixty-four offerings a day. He led a life of incessant labor and activity for Lord Sri Krishna, the Supreme Personality of Godhead. He effected such immense good in the world that his work is only to be compared with the unbounded works of Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu Himself and the Six Goswamis. It was the spiritual attempts and divine writings of this individual that turned the scale and led the intelligent and educated community to believe in the noble precepts and teachings of Lord Caitanya.
