The Bhaktivedanta Book Trust has recently published Sanantana Goswami\u2019s Sri Krishna-Lila-Stava: Adoration of Krishna’s Pastimes <\/em>. Sanantana Goswami<\/a> (1488-1558) was the senior most of Vrindavan\u2019s \u201cSix Goswamis<\/a>\u201d, all influential teachers of the bhakti<\/em> path. The description below is adapted from the book\u2019s dust jacket.<\/p>\n Sri Krsna Lila Stava of Srila Sanatana Goswami<\/strong><\/p>\n Translated by Gopiparanadhana Dasa<\/p>\n Among the priceless books contributed by Srila Sanatana Goswami to the literary heritage of the Gaudiya Vaishnavas, his Sri Krsna-lila-stava is the shortest and simplest. An offering of praise in 432 verses, it gives a personal meditation of Krishna’s Vrindavana pastimes as told by Shukadeva in Srimad-Bhagavatam.<\/p>\n This is an authentic spiritual work that has inspired Gaudiya Vaishnavas for centuries. Able to touch both heart and mind, it steps forward from a living tradition to bear witness to the working of the spirit. This edition of the Sri Krsna-lila-stava is especially praiseworthy because it gives a scholarly but easily understandable translation of the Sanskrit text interspersed with helpful and sensitive commentaries.<\/p>\n In Sri Krsna-lila-stava, Sanatana evokes remembrances of Krishna’s childhood pastimes by summarizing Shukadeva’s narration in simple verses. These verses give us a taste of Krishna’s Vrindavana pastimes, one after another, thus immersing us in the nectar of the Bhagavatam.<\/p>\n Hardbound, 362 pages, glossary, indexed, index of verses, dust-jacket, 6″ x 9″.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
