Sri Chaitanya Shikshamrita

In this book, Bhaktivinoda Thakura (1838—1914) presents the essence of the teachings of Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu (1486—1534) in a concise and accessible form. The Gaudiya Vaishnavas consider him to be the earthly incarnation of God, Krishna, who came to teach people all over the world the simple yet sublime method of bhakti-yoga — the yoga of devotional service to the Lord. The book is of interest to Indologists, students studying the history of religion, as well as anyone interested in the philosophy of Gaudiya Vaishnavism.
