Śrī Kṛṣṇa Bhajanāmṛtam – Epilogue by Śrīla Bhaktivinoda Ṭhākura

The book ‘Śrī Kṛṣṇa Bhajanāmṛtam’ by Śrīla Narahari Sarakāra Thākura, the associate of Mahāprabhu, deals with various controversies, and in particular the guru-disciple relationship. In 1899, Śrīla Bhaktivinoda Thākura published this work along with his Āsvāda-vistāriṇī Bhāṣya (‘The commentary that expands transcendental relish’) in Bengali in Sajjana Toṣaṇī, Vol. 11 Issues 1-4. The Ṭhākura’s commentary is an expanded translation of Narahari’s work. During the time of Bhaktivinoda Ṭhākura, the Bhajanāmṛtam was a very rare book, and he searched in various places to find a copy. The text that came to him has several grammatical mistakes in the Sanskrit. There are other versions of Kṛṣṇa Bhajanāmṛtam, with a number of extra paragraphs, however, we have translated the version used by Bhaktivinoda.

Bhāgavatārka Marīci Mālā – Second Ray

In 1901, Śrīla Bhaktivinoda Ṭhākura published the Bhāgavatārka Marīci Mālā (‘A Garland of Rays from the Sun-like Bhāgavatam’). The Ṭhākura took over a thousand quintessential verses from the 1800 verses of Śrīmad Bhāgavatam and complied them into 20 chapters, or ‘rays’ which expound upon various aspects of the Bhāgavata philosophy. Along with the verses, Bhaktivinoda wrote a commentary called the Marīci Prabhā (‘An Illumination on the Rays’). This follows along the same lines as his Gītā commentaries in that his commentary is incorporated within the verse translation. Translated into English by Swami B.V. Giri.
