Narada-Bhakti-Sutras. The Philosophy of Love. Collection

"Narada-Bhakti-Sutras" is a classical text of Medieval India. The poetic sutras form a guide to the colorful realm of bhakti - a world of selfless love for the Supreme Being. Divine love is like a magical thread that enchants, attracts,... and binds together loving hearts and the Creator. As boundless as the relationship with God is, so are the countless shades of bhakti.

A. Ignatiev tells the reader about the origins and development of the philosophy of bhakti and also offers a professional translation of the sutras from Sanskrit.

Marichir (S. Moiseev) looks into the melting pot of colorful bhakti subcultures and provides a literary translation of the sutras.

Hari Prasad Shastri, in the translation by E. Plekhanova, is enchanted by bhakti and comments on the sutras in the spirit of adhyatma-yoga and advaita-vedanta. The co-authors' comments reveal the mysteries of sensual relationships with God - how love purifies, engulfs, and liberates souls.

This collection is intended for all those who are intoxicated by the flavors of ecstatic love.
