RAMADASA BHATTA PARIVARA TILAK

Ramadasa Bhatta Parivara Tilak
RAMADASA BHATTA PARIVARA TILAK
Ramadas Bisvas was a Kayastha by caste and employed by the government. He was also a lecturer on Kavya Prakasa. When Tapan Misra's son, Raghunatha Bhatta and his attendant, were on the way to meet Lord Chaitanya, they met Ramadasa Bisvas along the way. Ramadasa was a devotee of Rama and a great scholar, who was deeply attracted to Vaisnavism. Ramadasa began to serve Raghunatha Bhatta with devotion, which embarrassed Raghunatha. In the course of their journey they discussed various subject matters related to scriptures and at last arrived at Puri. When they finally arrived at Nilacala, Raghunatha spoke to Lord Chaitanya about Ramadasa. But the omniscient Lord did not shower His grace upon Ramadasa immediately as He knew that within his heart Ramadasa still possessed some vanity due to his learning. Ramadasa then settled at Puri and taught the sons of Pattanayaka ‘Kavyaprakas’. Tilaka of the sect is a modified ‘V’ shaped white lines with a dot of chandan in the middle.
