SHYAMANANDA PARIVARA TILAK

SHYAMANANDA PARIVARA TILAK Sri Gopala Guru Shri Shyamananda Prabhu was born in Utkala, in a place called Dharenda Bhadura Pura. His father's name was Shri Krishna Mandal. His mother's name was Shri Durika. Shri Krishna Mandal, who was in the dynasty of the Six Gopas, had sired many sons and daughters who had passed away before this son took his birth. Because of the great misfortune which had befallen his family, Shri Krishna Mandal named the boy Dukhi. Everyone said that the boy would become a great person, a Mahapurush. On an auspicious moment on the full moon day of the month of Chaitra, he appeared within this world by the mercy of Lord Jagannatha. He travelled all through Bengal and Orissa spreading Gaudiya Vaishnavism. The followers of his sect display this tilaka and they are called Shyamanada Parivara.
