Kendubilva
In the Virbani district about 20 miles south of Suri, on the banks
of the Ajaya river, is Kendubilva, the place of Jayadeva Goswami. Jayadeva was
a royal pandit in the court of King Laksman Sen. His most famous literary work
is called Gita Govinda. In this book Jayadeva glorifies the incarnations of the
Supreme Lord Krishna. Lord Chaitanya was extremely fond of hearing this Gita
Govinda, and Svarupa Damodara and Mukunda would sing it to Him regularly during
the Lords residence in Jagannath Puri. Haribol!
