ÅšrÄ«la BhaktisiddhÄnta SarasvatÄ« ṬhÄkura remarks, “Both KÄlidÄsa and Jhaá¸u ṬhÄkura are worshiped at a place called ÅšrÄ«pÄá¹abÄá¹Ä«, in the village known as Bhedo or BhaduyÄ. This village is situated about three miles south of the village of Kṛṣṇapura, the birthplace of RaghunÄtha dÄsa GosvÄmÄ«, which is about one mile west of the Bandel junction of the Burdwan line. A post office there is named DevÄnanda-pura. Jhaá¸u ṬhÄkura used to worship the Deity of ÅšrÄ« Madana-gopÄla. The Deity is still worshiped by one RÄmaprasÄda dÄsa, who belongs to the RÄmÄyet community. It is said that the Deity worshiped by KÄlidÄsa had been worshiped until recently in the village of Åšaá¹…kha on the bank of the SarasvatÄ« River, but the Deity was taken away by a gentleman named MatilÄla Caá¹á¹opÄdhyÄya from the village of Triveṇī. The Deity is now being worshiped at his place.â€
