A Friend Indeed (Sri Gadadhara Pundit the real friend of Sri Gouranga)

In this Book the Author has described the life sketch of Sri Gadadhara Pundit who was not only the lifelong friend but also a sevaka of Lord Sri Chaitanyadeva in Nabadwip and Neelachal Lilas. Only for serving to Sri Gouranga (Sri Chaitanya) Sri Gadadhara Pundit remained unmarried. He was ready to hold his friend Sri Gouranga while he became frustrated of seeing Lord Srikrishna but couldn't touch Lord and fainted on the floor. Sri Gadadhara Pundit was also used to control the madness of Sri Gouranga. He was so sincere to worship Gopinathji at Tota (Jungle or Forest) in Puri that he did not even return to Nabadwip. During the period of stayals Sri Gouranga (Sri Chaitanyadeva) had the habit of listening to the reading the Srimadvagawat Geeta and the Srimad Bhagawata by Sri Gadadhara Pundit everyday. Even by leaning on other associates from Gambhira Sri Chaitanydeva used to meet his most beloved Sri Gadadhara Pundit at Tota and listen the readings. At the time of returning to Gambhira sometimes Sri Chaitanyadeva used to fall on the bushes with thorns in ecstasy for love to Lord Srikrishna.
