We are first putting up books that, more or
less, are nowhere else available in English. Soon, Sri Krishna willing,
we will put up, for the first time in the Western World, Vaisnava English
translations of Srila Jiva Gosvamis Sat-Sandharbas.
Kindly pray
that this can occur. Srila Prabhupada and Srila Bhaktivinode were both
keen on this being done. Again, these are simple but accurate presentations,
without current commentary. Iin due course others will present more formally.
Books by Srila Jiva Gosvami
Sri Krishna-Sandarbha - Volume 1 - an extremely special work,
very dear to Srila Bhaktivinode, who ordered his son to publish it as his
fondest desire, along with Srila Baladeva Vidyabhusana's "Vedanta Sutra
with Govinda Bhasya".
This is the second of the six "Sat-Sandarbhas", the first
being "Tattva-Sandarbha". The Sat-Sandarbhas thoroughly establish the authority
of Srimad Bhagavatam, the transcendental Original Form of Godhead, Sri
Krishna, Bhakti, and the methods and stages of Bhakti. The Six Sandarbhas
are:
Tattva, Paramatma, Bhagavat, Krishna, Bhakti, and Priti
Books by Srila Bhaktivinoda Thakur
Sri Amnaya-Sutra - An excellent, excellent
overview of the Vaisnava theology and path of devotion. Srila Bhaktivinode
composes verses based on Vaisnava siddhanta, and provides illumination
purports. Don't miss this one!
Tattva-Vivek -
A short yet thorough comparative study of the Absolute Truth. Excellent,
really excellent.
Books by Srila Rupa Gosvami
Hamsadutta - The chief of the Six Gosvamis,
the very beating heart of Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu. He wrote many works,
this one describes Sri Krishna and His pastimes in choice spiritual poetry.
Laghu-Bhagavatamrta establishes
the Transcendental Form of Govinda, as the Primeival Form of
Godhead, containing the fullest expression of Transcendental Sweetness
and Qualities. A rare and sublime work. Volume One
Books by Srila Prabhodananda Sarasvati
Navadvipa-Sataka - Srila Prabhodananda
was the uncle of Gopal Bhatta Gosvami and an intense Krishna bhakta who
glorified both Navadvipa and Vrndavana Dhams. One hundred verses in praise
of Sri Navadvipa, appearance place of Sri Chaitanya.
Sri Ramanda Raya
Sri Jaganath Vallabha -
a very rare work by Srila Ramananda Raya. Executed in the style of a play,
it glorifies Sri Krishna and His Sweetness in a sublimely palatable manner.
Srila Baladeva Vidyabhusana
Sri Vishnu-Sahasranama -
as translated with commentary by Srila Baladeva Vidyabhusana. Vaisnava
tantra dictates that chanting of this work, or chanting a chapter of Bhagavad-gita
are two prime means to counteract Deity and other aparadha's.
Chanting of Sri Vishnu Sahasranama takes about 20 minutes,
yet grants immediately percievable benefits, besides gradually uplifting
the chanter's character and devotion.
