Adi-lila, Chapter 11 357

Both these daughters married, and they are mentioned in Bhakti-ratnakara, Chapter
Thirteen. Virabhadra Gosani had three disciples who are celebrated as his sons—
Gopijana-vallabha, Ramakrsna and Ramacandra. The youngest, Ramacandra, be-
longed to the Sandilya dynasty and had the surname Vatavyala. He established his
family at Khadadaha, and its members are known as the gosvamis of Khadadaha.
The eldest disciple, Gopijana-vallabha, was a resident of a village known as Lata
near the Manakara railway station in the district of Burdwan. The second, Rama-
krsna, lived near Maladaha in a village named Gayesapura. Srila Bhaktisiddhanta
Sarasvati Thakura notes that since these three disciples belonged to different gotras,
or dynasties, and also had different surnames and lived in different places, it is not
possible to accept them as real sons of Virabhadra Gosani. Ramacandra had four
sons, of whom the eldest was Radhamadhava, whose third son was named
Yadavendra. Yadavendra’s son was Nandakisora, his son was Nidhikrsna, his son
was Caitanyacanda, his son was Krsnamohana, his son was Jaganmohana, his son
was Vrajanatha, and his son was Sydmalala Gosvami. This is the genealogical table
given by Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati Thakura for the descendants of Virabhadra
Gosani.
