Additional notes from the editors' research and selected discussion forum contributions.

Not to be confused with the Raghava Pandit who played a direct role in Chaitanya Lila, living in Panihati. This Raghava Pandit was a south Indian brahmin who came to live in a gupha in Puchari, a site which was later made famous through being used by other sadhakas like Ramakrishna Pandit Baba. Raghava Pandit is particularly notably mentioned in the 5th taranga of Bhakti-ratnakara for taking Srinivasa Acharya and Narottam Das around Braja for parikrama. There he is said to have been a good friend of Raghunath Das Goswami. He is mentioned in Gaura-ganoddesa-dipika (162), where his authorship of Bhakti-ratna-prakasa is also mentioned. He is identified as Champakalata in the Vraja lila.
