Prabhupada: Yes. So zamindar, landholder. So he belonged to a very big landholder... His father, his father and uncle, two brothers. So he was the only son. So naturally, he was to inherit the whole property, and at that time it was twelve hundred thousands dollars' income. Just see how much he was rich man. When he used to see Caitanya Mahaprabhu or Nityananda in his youth-hood, when he was eighteen years', twenty years' agehe was almost of the contemporary of Lord Caitanyahe used to distribute gold to the brahmanas and Vaisnavas, gold, so much gold. What is the price of so much gold? He used to distribute. He was rich man, so he was doing like rich man. So that is the history of Raghunatha dasa Gosvami. That is the history of Sanatana Gosvami. None of them were belonging to the Vaisnava sect or nothing. Caitanya Mahaprabhu turned them. This Sanatana Gosvami and Rupa Gosvami were rejected from the brahmana community because at that time the brahmana society was so strict, if somebody takes service of a Musselman or anyone, oh, he is immediately exterminated: "Oh, you cannot be accepted as pure..." Brahmana, ksatriya, according to Vedic system, the brahmana, ksatriya, and vaisya, they'll not accept any service, even it is worth $200,000. No. That he will not acc... Then that is degradation. Only the sudras can accept. That was the Vedic system. To accept another's service was so abominable. In the Bhagavata also it is stated that if the brahmanas, ksatriyas and vaisya, especially the brahmanas, they have no livelihood, then they can adopt the business of ksatriya and vaisya, but never accept the occupation of the dog, sudra. That is stated. You see? So to accept service of others was so abominable, even five hundred years ago. So this Sanatana Gosvami and Rupa Gosvami, they were also belonged to very rich family, but because they accepted ministership in the government of a Muhammadan, they were rejected. They were exterminated from the society. What is the extermination of society? He will never be invited. Nobody will offer his daughter to their family, because according to Vedic system, daughters and sons are not loitering in the street. The father and mother must engage. So if one is exterminated, oh, it is very difficult to get his daughter married. Nobody will accept. That was their condition. Actually, they also became hopelessness. They became almost Muhammadan. They changed their name, Dabira Khasa. This is Muhammadan name. And Sakara Mallika. Caitanya Mahaprabhu made them Gosvami, this Caitanya Mahaprabhu. Haridasa Thakura, he belonged to the Muhammadan community. He was made namacarya, the principal acarya of this chanting Hare Krsna. That is the revolutionary method of Caitanya.   (More...)
