लोग
| नाम | वर्ष | क्षेत्र | किसलिए मशहूर |
|---|---|---|---|
| Surdas | c. 1478–1580 | Poet | The blind poet of the Ashtachhap, associated with Govardhan, whose Sursagar is the largest body of Krishna verse in Braj Bhasha and is still sung as liturgy rather than read as literature. |
| Vallabhacharya | 1479–1531 | Philosopher and religious founder | Founded the Pushtimarg at Govardhan, established the haveli form of worship with its eight daily services, and set the temple foodway — no onion, no garlic, seasonal bhog — that the whole region now follows. |
| Chaitanya Mahaprabhu | 1486–1534 | Religious reformer | Came from Bengal in 1515 and identified the lost Braj sites; his six Goswami disciples settled at Vrindavan and built the temples and the theology, which is why Vrindavan has been a Bengali town for five centuries. |
| Swami Haridas | c. 1512–1607 | Musician and saint | Lived at Nidhivan, founded the Haridasi sampraday and the samaj gayan tradition, and is remembered as Tansen's teacher — the join between Braj temple music and north Indian classical music. |
| Raskhan | c. 1548–1628 | Poet | A Muslim poet who wrote some of the most quoted Krishna verse in Braj Bhasha and is buried at Mahavan. His samadhi is a pilgrimage site, and he is the region's standing answer to anyone who wants Braj to be simple. |
| Bihari Lal | 1595–1663 | Poet | Author of the Satsai, seven hundred couplets in Braj Bhasha that became the model for concision in Hindi poetry. |
| Hariram Vyas and the Ashtachhap poets | Sixteenth century | Poets and singers | The eight poets of the Pushtimarg whose padas make up the haveli repertoire, fixed to particular ragas and particular hours of the deity's day. |
| Maharaja Suraj Mal | 1707–1763 | Ruler | The Jat ruler of Bharatpur who built Deeg and Lohagarh and financed the sandstone tanks and cenotaphs of the Govardhan circuit — the region's principal secular builder. |
| A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada | 1896–1977 | Religious teacher | Founded ISKCON in New York in 1966 and built the Krishna-Balaram temple at Vrindavan, which turned Braj into a destination with a global congregation and permanently changed the town's demography. |
| Padmakar | 1753–1833 | Poet | Among the last major poets of the Riti tradition in Braj Bhasha, working at courts across north India as the literary language began to give way to Khari Boli. |
