Shri Nityananda Prabhu (1474 circa) was born in Ekachakra, a small village in present West Bengal. His birth place is commemorated by a temple named Garbhashva.
His father, Hadai Ojha and mother Padmavati, were pious Brahmans originally from Mithila. Nityananda Prabhu was born on the auspicious thirteenth day of the bright fortnight in the month of Magha (Madhava Masa). As a child, Nitai (as Nityananda Prabhu was called), loved to enact the pastimes of Shri Krishna or Lord Rama. He did this so authoritatively and with such rapture, that the entire village would be immersed in the love of Godhead. Nityananda Prabhu was Shri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu's friend and disciple.
According to Gaudiya-Vaishnava tradition, Shri Nityananda Prabhu is an incarnation of Lord Balarama, with Shri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu being his eternal brother and friend, Lord Krishna.
