Chaitanya

This is an intriguing biographical account of the 16th century avatar and propagator of the Bhakti Yoga devotional tradition and his principal associates. Chaitanya's doctrine of divine love created a renaissance of spiritual conception that continues to vibrate its timeless teachings to the present day. This biography brings the reader through the lives and deeds of his closest confidants — each of whom are considered saints in their own right. It includes a fold-out biographical map detailing the personalities appearing in Gaura Lila and Krishna Lila, for the first time available for an English audience. Foreword by Swami B.P. Puri.
