Before, Shri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu met Ramananda Raya, Sarvabhauma Bhattacharya told the Lord that no other Devotee’s knowledge of Radha-Krishna’s madhurya rasa compares with Ramananda Raya’s. Although Lord Chaitanya was half the age of forty year old Ramananda when they met, the Lord said, “My dear Ramananda, both you and I are madmen and therefore we meet intimately on an equal level.” Outwardly he acted as the Governor of Madras, but he was a poet, Sanskrit scholar, a dramatist well-versed in rasa literature, music, singing, dancing.

Ramananda Raya was one of the Lord’s three and a half most intimate associates.
