Songs of the Vaisnava Acaryas. Hymns and Mantras for the Glorification of Radha and Krsna - His Holiness Acyutananda Svami and Jayasacinandana dasa adhikari

Songs composed by the acaryas are not ordinary songs. The translations in this book are accurate renderings of the original Bengali and Sanskrit. All these songs have exquisite melodies.The verses of these songs are wonderful sources of knowledge for preachers of Krsna consciousness. In each and every line there is so much philosophy that one can preach from one line for hours. They are all so pregnant with meaning and they lead to such succint spiritual conclusions that a preacher need only recall the simple lines of songs like, Bhajahu Re Mana , Sri Rupa Manjari Pada , O Vaisnava Thakura , or the Sri Manah-siksa , and every point of Krsna consciousness will be covered in detail. Srila Prabhupada is constantly quoting from all these lines in his lectures and books.We should always remember the danger of maya s influence and endeavour to save ourselves from her great power. We must therefore always merge in the transcendental mellow of kirtana-rasa, for kirtana-rasa is the safest situation in this material world.
