Haridas Thakur was a fifteenth century contemporary of Lord Chaitanya Mahaprabhu. Haridas became well-known for his constant chanting of the Hare Krishna mantra, which upset the Muslim government of his time. He was ordered to either stop chanting or be beaten. He chose to keep chanting.
Haridas is considered by Vedic authorities to be the combined form of Lord Brahma and Sri Prahlad Maharaj.
Chaitanya Mahaprabhu declared Haridasa Thakura to be the namacharya or the person who most exemplifies how to best chant the holy names of Krishna.
