History - Sriman Madhva-Gaudeshwar-Vasihnava Peetham.
The Supreme Lord Krishna combined with Srimati Radha Rani and incarnated as Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu to confer bhakti to all beings. Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu performed Harinam sankirtan and conducted many congregational preaching activities, as a result of which innumerable devotees came to take his shelter. He asked his devotees to dedicate their lives to propagate His teachings.
Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu bestowed His yellow anga-vastram and the mat that he sat on while chanting, to Sri Gopal Bhatta Goswami and appointed him the Acarya of Sriman Madhva-Gaudeshwar-Vasihnava Peetham.
Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu asked Sri Gopal Bhatta Goswami to go to Vrindavan and locate the important past-time places of Sri Sri Radha Krishna and make them know to everyone. Sri Gopal Bhatta Goswami’s contribution to Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu’s Sampradaya is immense. He compiled various work like Sri Krishna Tatva Mimamsa, Hari Bhakti Vilas etc., while practicing his spiritual life in Vrindavan.
