11. Who arethe Gaudiya Vaisnavas? By Bhaktisiddhanta SarasvatiDevotees of Visnu arecalled Vaisnavas, devotees of Krsna are called Karsnas, and the devotees of SriRadha [Gauri] {white woman} are called Gaudiyas[Gauriyas]. Lord Gaurangas devotees, who are under theshelter of parakiya-madhurya-rati and who follow Sri Rupa, are called Gaudiyas.The Gaudiya Vaisnavas follow Sri Svarupa Damodara Gosvami, the incarnation ofLalita. Therefore they can be defined as followers of Sri Svarupa and Sri Rupa.Therefore Mahaprabhu commented to Sri Svarupa Damodara Prabhu, This is thebehavior of your Gaudiya devotees.The Gaudiya Vaisnavasare interested in manjari-bhava, and Sri Radha-Govinda, Sri Radha-Gopinatha,and Sri Radha-Madana-mohana are their worshipable Deities. [...]Generally, Lord Gaurangasdevotees are known as Gaudiyas [Gauriyas], and the devotees in Gaudadesa(Bengal) are also called Gaudiyas, just as the devotees in Utkala [Odissa] arecalled Odiyas. >>> Ref.
