Dinjoy Satra
: The Satra is
located at Dinjoy about 5kms north of
Chabua Township. Amongst the twelve main devotees of Gopal Atadev,
the distinguished devotee Aniruddha Dev founded a Satra first at
Bisnubalikakunshi village of North Lakhimpur. Later on this Satra was
shifted to Khutiaputa. During this period the Moamoria rebellion took place
and this Satra fell into troubled waters. This rebellion took place when
Astabhuj Gosain (Priest having eight hands) was the ninth
head of this Xatra. After his demise, this religious seat of the
Satra remained vacant for about fourteen
years. Later on Pitambar Chandra Dev was made the head of the Xatra on the
orders of Maharaj Gaurinath Singha. The Satra again fell into deep trouble
when during this period there occurred
a rebellion once again. Even after the end of the Moamaria rebellion this
trouble continued at the time when the Burmese invasion began. After
stability returned to the
kingdom, Bhaktananda Gosain who
had been absconding during the Burmese invasion, came to Barbheti Satra
situated in Malowpather. Matibor Senapati, the son of Sarbananda Singha of
Tinsukia(Bengmora), with due permission of Purnananda Singh Swargadev,
brought Bhktananda Gosain first to Rangagara and then later on to the
present site of Dinjan at
Chabua and named the Satra thus established as Dinjoy Satra. The Satra since
then(since 1837) has remained at this place and has become famous as the
Dinjoy Satra.
