Bhajan kutir of Srila Rupa Goswami

The place near the banks of Yamuna where Rupa Goswami performed his meditations, wrote literature, and held meetings with the Goswamis.

On his arrival in Vrindavana, Srila Rupa Goswami chose this place near the banks of the Yamuna to perform his bhajana and rest beneath the trees at night. This place eventually became his principal headquarters, where he held meetings with the other Goswamis to spread the teachings of Chaitanya Mahaprabhu.

He held discourses on Srimad Bhagavatam and other Vaishnava literature. It was also here where he wrote many of his important books including the great Vaishnava classic Bhakti-Rasamrita Sindhu — the Nectar of Devotion. Over time, a simple thatched cottage was built for Rupa Goswami where he could keep his parchment leaves and other items used for writing books. The Bhajan Kutir is located adjacent to Radha Damodara temple.
