Ananda Vrndavana Campu By Srila Kavi karnapura
Ananda Vrndavana Campu by Srila Kavi Karnapura is a poetic masterpiece that immerses the reader in the blissful, madhurya-filled pastimes of Sri Sri Radha-Krishna in Vrindavan. With a rasika lens, Kavi Karnapura offers a detailed and intimate narration of Krishna’s manifest lila—particularly those steeped in sweetness and divine romance.
Concluding the book with the Swing Festival of Radha and Krishna, the author carefully avoids certain chapters of the Srimad-Bhagavatam—such as the Gopi’s Songs of Separation, the slaying of Arista and Kesi, Akrura’s visit, and Krishna’s departure to Mathura—since these lilas shift the mood from sweet intimacy to separation and heroism, which the author deems unsuitable to the soft, blissful tone of Vrindavan’s madhurya-rasa.
Srila Kavi Karnapura, a brilliant young poet and the son of Sivananda Sena, is known as the crest jewel of rasika poets. This Campu-style kavya is an essential addition to the bookshelf of any serious Gaudiya Vaishnava or seeker of Vrindavan’s intimate divine moods.
