The residents of Kulīna-grāma formed a subbranch of Haridāsa Ṭhākura. Foremost among them was Satyarāja Khān, also called Satyarāja Vasu, who received all his mercy.
During part of Cāturmāsya, Haridāsa Ṭhākura stayed in Kulīna-grāma. He chanted the Hare Kṛṣṇa mahā-mantra and distributed mercy to the descendants of the Vasu family.
Satyarāja Khān supplied silk ropes for the Jagannātha Deity during Ratha-yātrā. He also asked Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu about the duty of householder devotees.
