In 1941 at Katva, the place where Caitanya Mahaprabhu accepted sannayasa, Vinoda-bihari accepted the renounced order from Srila Bhakti Raksaka Sridhara Maharaja. He was given the name Srila Bhakti
Prajnana Kesava Gosvami. On December 13, 1954, Srila Kesava Maharaja established Sri Kesavaji Gaudiya Matha in Mathura and two years later, during the month of Karttika, he installed the deities Sri Sri Radha
Vinoda-bihari. Srila Kesava Maharaja was a powerful acarya who had eternal and unshakable faith in his own guru. He was an extraordinary writer and speaker. He was great thinker and organiser, and he was
extremely knowledgeable on law. Following in his gurudeva's footsteps he was a naisthika brahmacari. . . ." [From Gauranga.de]
