Priti Sandarbha (Vol. I-II) By Satyanarayana Dasa Babaji
Priti Sandarbha is the sixth and final volume in the Sat Sandarbha anthology by Sri Jiva Gosvami, following the previously published Tattva, Bhagavat, Paramatma, Krishna, and Bhakti Sandarbhas. In this profound work, Sri Jiva Gosvami systematically reveals the true nature of prīti, placing it on the highest pedestal among all human pursuits.
Everyone speaks about love, yet very few truly understand its real nature. Prīti is not merely an emotion or a temporary state of the mind. Rather, it is a conscious spiritual potency arising from Bhagavan’s intrinsic energy (svarupa-shakti-vritti) and is therefore completely transcendental in nature. It should never be confused with worldly love, which is based upon identification with the material body. Prīti completely transcends such ego-centered identification and is free from all selfish motives.
This divine love cannot be found within ordinary material relationships. Although worldly affection may externally resemble spiritual love, it ultimately remains self-centered because it arises from bodily identification. Material love thus belongs to material nature (prakriti), whereas spiritual love (prīti) is a function of Bhagavan’s own internal potency. It is conscious, ever-expanding, and inherently blissful. Completely free from selfish desire, it fully satisfies the heart, leaving nothing further to be attained.
Through a vivid revelation of prīti’s limitless and ever-variegated manifestations within the transcendental realm of prīti-rasa, this work awakens a sincere longing for divine love in the hearts of genuine practitioners, extinguishing attraction toward all lesser goals. Although prīti is not inherent within the conditioned living being, it can be attained through the mercy of a highly realized devotee or Bhagavan Himself.
