Viveka-satakam: A Hundred Verses of Wisdom
Srila Prabodhananda Sarasvatī’s poetic adoration of Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu, Śrī Rādhā, Śrī Vṛndāvana-dhāma, and Śrī Navadvīpa-dhāma, in his famous works Śrī Rādhārasa-sudhā-nidhi, Śrī Caitanya-candrāmṛta, Vṛndāvana śataka, and Navadvīpa-śataka, is unprecedented in its unique ebullience.
Among his other works are Saṅgīta-Mādhava, Āścarya-rasa-prabandha, Śruti-stuti-vyākhyā, Gītagovinda-vyākhyāna, Kāma-bīja-kāma-gāyatrī-vyākhyāna, and commentary on Gopāla-tāpanī Upaniṣad. The present book is actually a trilogy of Śrīla Prabodhānanda Sarasvatī’s writings which were so far unknown to the public.
In the longest of the three works, Viveka-śatakam, the author repeatedly expresses his ardent desire to go to Vṛndāvana.Typical of Śrīla Prabodhānanda Sarasvatī, his devotional ecstasy as if leaps from his heart into his words and therefrom to the heart of the sympathetic reader.
