This is an authentic spiritual work that has inspired Gaudiya Vaishnavas for centuries. Able to touch both heart and mind, it steps forward from a living tradition to bear witness to the working of the spirit. This edition of the Sri Krsna-lila-stava is especially praiseworthy because it gives a scholarly but easily understandable translation of the Sanskrit text interspersed with helpful and sensitive commentaries.

In Sri Krsna-lila-stava, Sanatana evokes remembrances of Krishna’s childhood pastimes by summarizing Shukadeva’s narration in simple verses. These verses give us a taste of Krishna’s Vrindavana pastimes, one after another, thus immersing us in the nectar of the Bhagavatam.
