Practically, Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu left behind Him that eight ślokas, Śikṣāṣṭaka, which you have seen. I have translated in my first volume of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam.

On the basis of those eight verses, the Gosvāmīns wrote literatures, volumes of books. From Vṛndāvana they were dispatched after the disappearance of the Gosvāmīns. They left so many books, handwritten, that when they were dispatched it was a full cartload, a big cartload, you see. Just imagine how many books they wrote. They were great scholars, and many varieties of books of bhakti school, Kṛṣṇa consciousness, they wrote.
