A Glorious Anthology of Classical Poetry on Devotion
The undisputed established principle of the Vedas, the six Darshanas, the Puranas and so on, is that the ultimate aim of every living being is the attainment of bliss, which to fulfil, one must be infinite and eternal. Such infinite bliss is Shri Krishna alone, the Supreme Lord and crest jewel of rasik saints …” Jagadguru Shri Kripalu Ji
The extraordinary divine activities of Shri Radha Krishna depicted in Prema Rasa Madira, a diverse collection of 1008 devotional songs written in Hindi by Jagadguruttam Shri Kripalu Ji Maharaj, are in accordance with spiritual laws in the Vedas, Puranas, Upanishads, and other scriptures, as well as the writings of rasik saints. The divine plays that took place during the descension of Shri Krishna 5000 years ago form their basis.
The spiritual principle of the Vedas is that our constant pursuit of happiness in the world is a misdirected search for divine happiness, divine bliss. This infinite, everlasting, and eternal happiness is God Himself, Shri Krishna. Yet, Shri Krishna, whose nature is happiness and who is the very embodiment of happiness, is under the control of His own divine love, prem. These devotional songs have therefore been written from the perspective of attaining the cherished goal of divine love.
Sumptuously presented over three volumes, The Intoxicating Bliss of Divine Love — the English translation of Prema Rasa Madira — includes an elaborate appendix section at the back of each volume, intended to assist English readers to deepen their understanding of the sentiments and concepts expressed.
Jagadguru Shri Kripalu Ji’s poetry is powerfully evocative, full of love, devotion, and humility. The visual descriptiveness of the writing captivates the mind. Meditation becomes more free-flowing, roopdhyan more dynamic, and the term spirituality takes on a whole new meaning.
