Purport

Śrīla Bhaktisiddhānta Sarasvatī Ṭhākura writes in his Anubhāṣya, “There is some question about whether Dvija Haridāsa was the author of Aṣṭottara-śata-nāma. He had two sons, named Śrīdāma and Gokulānanda, who were disciples of Śrī Advaita Ācārya. Their village, Kāñcana-gaḍiyā, is situated within five miles of the Bājārasāu station, the fifth station from Azimganj in the district of Murshidabad [in West Bengal].”
