rūpapriya mahājana, jīva-raghunātha hon, tā̐ra priya kavi kṛṣṇadāsa kṛṣṇadāsa-priyabara, narottama sevāpara, jā̐ra pada viśvanātha-āśa 7 The great souls Jīva Goswāmī and Raghunāth dās Goswāmī became very dear to Rūpa Goswāmī. Jīva Goswāmī was a disciple of Rūpa Goswāmī. Raghunātha dās Goswāmī, a disciple of Advaita Āchāryya’s disciple Jadunandan Āchāryya, was accepted by Rūpa and Sanātan as their third brother. Raghunāth dās Goswāmī’s beloved student was Krishnadās Kavirāj Goswāmī. Kṛṣṇādās Kavirāj was an intimate friend of Lokanāth Goswāmī. They lived together in Vṛndāvan and always discussed the topics of Krishna with one another. Lokanāth Goswāmī, a disciple of Gadādhara Paṇḍit, had only one disciple, whose name was Narottam dās. Narottam dās was always engaged in the service of his guru, and he also engaged himself in the service of his guru’s intimate friends. Thus he became very dear to Krishnadās Kavirāj Goswāmī. To serve the feet of Narottam dās Ṭhākur was the only desire of Viśvanāth Chakravartī Ṭhākur, who was the fourth āchāryya in disciplic succession from Narottam dās.

Jagannāth dās Bābājī was a very prominent Āchāryya after Śrī Baladeva Vidyābhūṣaṇa and was the beloved śikṣā-guru of Śrī Bhaktivinoda Ṭhākur. Bhaktivinoda Ṭhākur’s intimate friend and associate was the eminent mahā-bhāgavat Śrī Gaura Kiśora dās Bābājī, whose sole joy was found in hari-bhajana.
