After reestablishing the service to the Deity of Caitanya Mahaprabhu previously worshipped by Vasudeva Ghosa in Tamluk, Syamananda Prabhu left for Basantia with Rasikananda, where in 1617 AD he started the service to Sri Gokula Candra.
After appointing someone to carry on the service, Syamananda left for his native village, Dharenda, with his disciples. While he was staying there, Srila Hridaya Caitanya Thakura arrived there with many disciples. Seeing that Syamananda Prabhu and his disciples and grand-disciples had immersed the whole of Utkal in Sri Hari Nama and loving devotional service as desired by Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu, Hridaya Caitanya felt extremely satisfied.
During this period, being repeatedly requested by devotees like Rasamaya, Vamsi, Bhima, Srikara and others, Syamananda Prabhu married Srimati Syamapriya Dasi, daughter of Jagannatha Dasa, a resident of Badabalarampur.
