The title of ‘BhaktiVinode’

 

14 Oct: On Sri Ishvarachandra Vidyasagar’s recommendation, Sri Kedarnath Datta took a job teaching at Cuttack Government Secondary School and shortly thereafter, the headmaster’s position at a school in Bhadrak in 1860.

 

During this time, he wrote a book on the various religious institutions of Orissa, Maths of Orissa, which Sir William Hunter made much use of as a reference in his work Orissa. He also wrote a work named Sri-Caitanya-gita under the pen name Satchitananda Premalankar. 

He was given the title ‘Bhaktivinode’ by the Sri Gaudiya Goswami Sangha on the 400^th anniversary of Mahaprabhu’s appearance (1885). From this time on, Sri Kedarnath Datta was known in Vaishnava society as Sri Satchitananda Bhaktivinode Thakur
