Revealing the Truth of the Identity of Gaura’s Associates) A
book which follows the earlier work of Śrī Kavi-Karṇapūra
called Gaura-gaṇoddeśa-dīpikā. It similarly reveals the Vraja-
līlā identity of various descendants of the Gauḍīya-sampradāya),
but is updated to include many other personalities that appeared
in the sampradāya after Kavi Karṇapūra’s time.

Saṁskṛta verses describing the exact locations of the sacred
marks found on Lord Caitanya’s palms and soles, including
those of Śrī Nityānanda and Śrī Advaita. Viśvanātha composed
another work also called Rūpa-cintāmaṇi that describes the head-
to-toe beauty of Śrī Śrī Rādhā-Kṛṣṇa, as well as the marks on the
soles of Their lotus feet; this work is included in his collection
called Stavāmṛta-laharī.
16. Kṣaṇadā-gīta-cintāmaṇi :(The Touchstone of Songs to be
Sung at Night) This is the first anthology of devotional songs
written by GauḍīyaVaiṣṇava poets in the Bengali, Saṁskṛta and
Braja-bhumī languages. Viśvanātha compiled the writings of
45 authors totalling 309 songs, among which are 51 of his own
songs, signed with his other pen name Hari-vallabha. The songs
are divided up into groups that are to be sung each night of the
month; thus there are 30 divisions — 15 for the dark fortnight
and 15 for the light fortnight.
