Saptamī, Kṛṣṇa (dark) pakṣa Vaiśākha (Madhusūdana) māsa · Gaurābda 541 Nakṣatra: Uttara-āṣāḍhā
Disappearance day of Srila Abhirama Gopala Thakura
Nityananda Prabhu's Preacher-Associate at Khanakula Krishnanagara
- Departed
- Krishna Saptami (dark seventh) of the month of Chaitra; year not recorded
- Place
- Khanakula Krishnanagara, Hooghly district, Bengal, by temple tradition (one modern source instead mentions an unverified '64 Samadhis' site)
Devotees keep Abhirama Gopala Thakura's disappearance day on Krishna Saptami, the seventh day of the dark fortnight of the month of Chaitra. This is the same date as the large annual mela held at his temple in Khanakula Krishnanagara. No source records a year for either his birth or his disappearance, so we report that gap here instead of guessing.
