12,00

During the same years that Emerson and Thoreau were yearning for Vedic wisdom, Bhaktivinoda Thakur wrote this small book on the life and teachings of Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu in english language and send it to the Royal Asiatic Socienty of London. They wrote the following words:

“This little volume will add to our knowledge of this remarkable reformer, and we express our thanks to Bhaktivinode for giving it to us in English, rather than in Bengali, in which language it must necessarily have remained a closed book to Europian students of the religious life of India.”
