Auspicious Gauranga Chaitanya

In Gaudiya Vaishnavism the five features of Lord Krishna are believed to have incarnated on Earth as five people in the late 15th century which are ,Chaitanya Mahaprabhu, Nityananda Prabhu, Advaita Acharya, Gadadhara Pandita and Srivasa Thakura. They are also known as Pancha Tatva and they famously spread the Hare Krishna mantra, and the practice of devotion / bhakti to Krishna throughout India. Gauranga is a term popularized by the Hare Krishna movement in the 1970s. It is derived from Sanskrit gauranga having a golden body, a Bahuvrihi compound from Gaura white, yellowish, reddish and anga limb, member; the body. Gauranga is a name of Krishna in Puranic literature, and in Gaudiya Vaishnavism in particular a name of Chaitanya Mahaprabhu (considered a reincarnation of Krishna). Within Gaudiya Vaishnava tradition it is taken to refer to Chaitanya Mahaprabhus golden skin complexion. Chaitanya Mahaprabhu was born in Mayapur, West Bengal, in 1486.
