284 Sri Caitanya-caritamrta

This is explained in Caitanya-bhdgavata, Antya-khanda, Fifth Chapter.

The tomb of Gadadhara dasa Prabhu, which is in the village of Eddiyadaha, was
under the control of the Samyogi Vaisnavas and later under the direction of Siddha
Bhagavan dasa Babaji of Kalna. By his order, Sri Madhusidana Mullik, one of the
members of the aristocratic Mullik family of the Narikeladanga in Calcutta, estab-
lished a patavati (monastery) there in the Bengali year 1256. He also arranged for
the worship of a Deity named Sri Radhakanta. His son Balaicanda Mullik, estab-
lished Gaura-Nitai Deities there in the Bengali year 1312. Thus on the throne of the
temple are both Gaura-Nityananda Deities and Radha-Krsna Deities. Below the
throne is a tablet with an inscription written in Sanskrit. In that temple there is
also a small Deity of Lord Siva as Gopesvara. This is all described on a stone by the
side of the entrance door.
