Haridasa Thakur (IAST Haridāsa) (born 1451 or 1450^[1]) was a Vaishnava saint known for playing a part in the initial propagation of the Hare Krishna movement. He is considered to be a known convert of Chaitanya Mahaprabhu, apart from Rupa Goswami and Sanatana Goswami. His story of integrity and faith in the face of adversity is told in Chaitanya Charitamrita, Antya lila.^[2] It is believed that Chaitanya Mahaprabhu himself designated Haridasa as nāmācarya, meaning the 'teacher of the Name'.^[3] Haridasa Thakura was a devotee of the deity Krishna, and is regarded to have practised the chant of his veneration, Hare Krishna, 300,000 times daily.^[4]
