description: "Krupasiddha Balarama Dasa was a mystic seer-poet who wrote in Odia, best known as the author of the voluminous Jagamohana Ramayana or Dandi Ramayana. He was one of the five great poets in Odia literature, the 'Panchasakhā' named Ananta Dasa, Jagannatha Dasa, Jasobanta Dasa and Achyutananda Dasa during the Bhakti age of literature. He was the eldest of the five. The honorific Krupāsiddhā or Krupāsāgara, meaning 'bestowed with divine grace' is used for him by tradition."
