The Bhaktivedanta Research Centre’s Mission for Manuscripts Team visited the Sripata of Srila Vrndavana dasa Thakura, Denuda in Bardaman (West Bengal).

On the altar there is a wood and glass box containing a mss that is said to be the original Caitanya Bhagavat by Srila Vrndavana dasa Thakura.

We were not allowed to photograph these from the outside of the box because, following an attempt to steal it by a young man disguised as a Hindu sadhu, the box was sealed and even the current pujari can’t open it.

With it there is a thin strip with what the owners claim is the handwriting of Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu Himself.
