			<!---------------- BEGIN QUOTE BOXES ---------------->
			{{VaniQuotebox\|Haridasa Thakura was born in a village known as Budhana but after some time came to live on the bank of the Ganges at Phuliya, near Santipura\|It is stated in the Caitanya-bhāgavata, Ādi-khaṇḍa, Chapter Two, that Haridāsa Ṭhākura was born in a village known as Buḍhana but after some time came to live on the bank of the Ganges at Phuliyā, near Śāntipura. '''(Caitanya-caritāmṛta, Ādi-līlā 10.43)'''}}

			{{VaniQuotebox\|Caitanya Mahaprabhu confirms that Haridasa Thakura is the incarnation of Lord Brahma\|By using the words tomāra avatāra (“your incarnation”), Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu confirms that Haridāsa Ṭhākura is the incarnation of Lord Brahmā. '''(Caitanya-caritāmṛta, Antya-līlā 11.25)'''}}

			{{VaniQuotebox\|Lord Caitanya Mahaprabhu embraced Haridasa Thakura and informed him that he was none other than an incarnation of Prahlada Maharaja\|Lord Caitanya Mahāprabhu embraced Haridāsa Ṭhākura and informed him that he was none other than an incarnation of Prahlāda Mahārāja. '''(Caitanya-caritāmṛta, Ādi-līlā 17.71)'''}}

			{{VaniQuotebox\|Haridasa Thakura, although born in a mleccha or yavana family, became Namacarya Haridasa Thakura because he performed the nama-yajna a minimum of 300,000 times every day\|A person who is not purified by the prescribed process of saṁskāra is called asaṁskṛta, but if one remains kriyā-hīna even after being purified by initiation—in other words, if one fails to actually apply the principles of purity in his life—he remains an unpurified mleccha or yavana. On the other hand, we find that Haridāsa Ṭhākura, although born in a mleccha or yavana family, became Nāmācārya Haridāsa Ṭhākura because he performed the nāma-yajña a minimum of 300,000 times every day. '''(Caitanya-caritāmṛta, Antya-līlā 3.124)'''}}

			{{VaniQuotebox\|Haridasa Thakura was born in a Muslim family and was later recognized as a great Vaisnava, but nevertheless the brahmanas were very critical of him\|While Haridāsa Ṭhākura was staying under the care of Advaita Ācārya, he was afraid of the behavior of the society in Śāntipura, Navadvīpa, which was full of exceedingly aristocratic brāhmaṇas, kṣatriyas and vaiśyas. Haridāsa Ṭhākura was born in a Muslim family and was later recognized as a great Vaiṣṇava, but nevertheless the brāhmaṇas were very critical of him. '''(Caitanya-caritāmṛta, Antya-līlā 3.220)'''}}

	{{VaniQuotebox\|Haridasa ~~Thakura~~ was ~~born in a village known as Budhana but after some time came to live on~~ the ~~bank~~ of the ~~Ganges at Phuliya~~, ~~near Santipura~~\|~~Haridasa Thakura~~ was ~~born in~~ a ~~village known as Budhana but after some time~~ came to ~~live on~~ the ~~bank~~ of the ~~Ganges~~ at ~~Phuliya~~, ~~near Santipura~~. (~~CC Adi 10~~.43)}}		{{VaniQuotebox\|Haridasa was punished at the hands of the Kazi by being beaten in twenty-two marketplaces. Similarly, Lord Jesus Christ was crucified, and Prahlada Maharaja was put through so many tribulations\|Sometimes we see that a powerful preacher is killed, or sometimes he is put into difficulty, just as Haridāsa Ṭhākura was. He was a great devotee who came into this material world to execute the will of the Lord by preaching the Lord's glories. But Haridāsa was punished at the hands of the Kazi by being beaten in twenty-two marketplaces. Similarly, Lord Jesus Christ was crucified, and Prahlāda Mahārāja was put through so many tribulations. '''(Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam 3.16.37)'''}}

	{{VaniQuotebox\|Haridasa Thakura ~~was born in~~ a ~~village known as Budhana but after some time came to live on~~ the ~~bank of~~ the ~~Ganges at Phuliya~~, ~~near Santipura\|Haridasa Thakura was born in~~ a ~~village known as Budhana but after some time came to live on~~ the ~~bank~~ of the ~~Ganges~~ at ~~Phuliya~~, ~~near Santipura~~. (~~CC Adi 10~~.43)}}		{{VaniQuotebox\|One should not imitate Haridasa Thakura, for no one else can chant the holy name 300,000 times a day. Such chanting is for the mukta-purusa, or liberated soul\|One should not, however, imitate Haridāsa Ṭhākura, for no one else can chant the holy name 300,000 times a day. Such chanting is for the mukta-puruṣa, or liberated soul. We can follow his example, however, by chanting sixteen rounds of the Hare Kṛṣṇa mahā-mantra on beads every day and offering respect to the tulasī plant. This is not at all difficult for anyone, and the process of chanting the Hare Kṛṣṇa mahā-mantra with a vow before the tulasī plant has such great spiritual potency that simply by doing this one can become spiritually strong. '''(Caitanya-caritāmṛta, Antya-līlā 3.100)'''}}

	{{VaniQuotebox\|~~Lord Caitanya Mahaprabhu embraced~~ Haridasa Thakura ~~and informed him~~ that he was ~~none other than an incarnation~~ of ~~Prahlada Maharaja\|Lord Caitanya Mahaprabhu embraced~~ Haridasa Thakura and ~~informed him~~ that he was ~~none other than an incarnation~~ of ~~Prahlada Maharaja~~. (~~CC Adi 17~~.71)}}		{{VaniQuotebox\|Haridasa Thakura asked Advaita Prabhu why He was doing something which might jeopardize His position in brahmana society. Advaita Prabhu replied that He was feeding millions of first-class brahmanas by offering the food to Haridasa Thakura\|Haridāsa Ṭhākura asked Advaita Prabhu why He was doing something which might jeopardize His position in brāhmaṇa society. Advaita Prabhu replied that He was feeding millions of first-class brāhmaṇas by offering the food to Haridāsa Ṭhākura. He was prepared to talk with any learned brāhmaṇa on this point and prove definitely that by offering food to a pure devotee like Haridāsa Ṭhākura, He was equally as blessed as He would have been by offering food to thousands of learned brāhmaṇas. '''(Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam 4.21.41)'''}}

	{{VaniQuotebox\|Haridasa Thakura, ~~although born~~ in ~~a mleccha or yavana family~~, ~~became Namacarya Haridasa Thakura because he performed~~ the ~~nama-yajna a minimum~~ of ~~300,000 times every day\|Haridasa Thakura, although born~~ in a ~~mleccha or yavana family~~, ~~became Namacarya Haridasa Thakura because he performed the nama-yajna a minimum of 300~~,~~000 times every day~~. (~~CC Antya 3~~.~~124~~)}}		{{VaniQuotebox\|One should not attempt to imitate such exalted devotees (as Haridasa Thakura). Rather, everyone should endeavor to preach the cult of Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu in all parts of the world and thus become successful in spiritual life\|One should not attempt to imitate such exalted devotees. Rather, everyone should endeavor to preach the cult of Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu in all parts of the world and thus become successful in spiritual life. One who is not very expert in preaching may chant in a secluded place, avoiding bad association, but for one who is actually advanced, preaching and meeting people who are not engaged in devotional service are not disadvantages. '''(Caitanya-caritāmṛta, Ādi-līlā 7.92)'''}}

	{{VaniQuotebox\|Haridasa Thakura ~~was born~~ in a ~~Muslim family and was later recognized as~~ a ~~great Vaisnava~~, ~~but nevertheless~~ the ~~brahmanas were very critical~~ of ~~him\|~~Haridasa Thakura ~~was born~~ in a ~~Muslim family and was later recognized as~~ a ~~great Vaisnava~~, ~~but nevertheless~~ the ~~brahmanas were very critical~~ of ~~him~~. (~~CC Antya 3~~.~~220~~)}}		{{VaniQuotebox\|Haridasa Thakura also spoke with a young woman, a prostitute, in the dead of night, but the woman could not deviate his mind. Instead, she became a Vaisnavi, a pure devotee, by the benediction of Haridasa Thakura\|Haridāsa Ṭhākura also spoke with a young woman, a prostitute, in the dead of night, but the woman could not deviate his mind. Instead, she became a Vaiṣṇavī, a pure devotee, by the benediction of Haridāsa Ṭhākura. Ordinary persons, however, should not imitate such highly elevated devotees. Ordinary persons must strictly observe the rules and regulations by staying aloof from the association of women. No one should imitate Nārada Muni or Haridāsa Ṭhākura. '''(Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam 7.7.14)'''}}
