Ricika Muni’s son Brahma Mahatapah, and Prahlada Maharaja combined to appear as Haridasa Thakur in Lord Caitanya’s pastimes.
In the book Caitanya-carita, Murari Gupta explains that one morning Mahatapah gave an unwashed tulasi leaf to his father, who became so angry at him for this that he cursed him.
Because of this Mahatapah took birth in a yavana family as the great devotee Haridasa Thakura.
