Presented in its pristine Sanskrit form, it’s complemented with meticulous English translations and in-depth commentary in three languages by Mahamandaleshwar Mahant Krsna Balaram Swami. This tome is a masterpiece, revered by spiritual practitioners and scholars alike. Any genuine pursuer of Vedic wisdom and this life’s ultimate objective will consider this invaluable work a crown jewel in their collection, cherishing its timeless teachings.

About the author

His Divine Grace Mahamandaleshwar Mahant Sri Krsna Balaram Swami appeared in a family of self-realized Gaudiya Vaisnavas. His birth dynasty dates back to Kasyapa Muni-one of the seven sons born from the mind of the first created being in the universe, Lord Brahma.
Swamiji heard Devanagari (Sanskrit) spoken fluently in his home and was trained in Bhakti Yoga (the path of devotion) from birth. His father, a highly respected Guru of many in the Vrindaban area, began tutoring his son at the tender age of four, at their home in Vrindaban.
At the age of eight, Swamiji was enrolled in Vrindaban’s renowned Nimbarka Sanskrit Mahavidyalaya College, where he lived in the dorm and studied continually for eight years. A brilliant student, he then transferred to an English college, where he learned to translate the ancient Vedic scriptures into English.

In April of 2004, the four Vaiṣṇava Sampradāyas elevated Swāmījī to the position of Mahāmaṇḍaleshwar, choosing to bypass the position of Śrī Mahant altogether.

Historically Mahāmaṇḍaleshwar is the highest position (equal to cardinal) that has been held among the Mahants of the four Vaiṣṇava Sampradāyas of all of India. At the Kumbha Melā in 2012, all the Śrī Mahants wanted to select Swāmījī for the topmost position of Jagad Guru. Swāmījī has yet to accept that honor.
