Raga Vartma Candrika & The Hidden Path of Devotion
This book set of Raga Vartma Candrika and The Hidden Path of Devotion offers a deep and authentic introduction to the path of raganuga bhakti as taught in the Gaudiya Vaishnava tradition.
Raga Vartma Candrika, written by Srila Visvanatha Cakravarti Thakura with commentary by Sri Srimad Bhaktivedanta Narayana Gosvami Maharaja, is a foundational work that explains the qualifications, inner mood, and progressive stages of spontaneous devotion. It clearly describes essential topics such as spiritual longing or lobha, guidance under a qualified guru, and the internal cultivation of devotion following the residents of Vraja. This book is highly valued for its scriptural depth and clarity.
The Hidden Path of Devotion presents these same teachings in a conversational and practical format. Through clear explanations and discussions, Sri Srimad Bhaktivedanta Narayana Gosvami Maharaja reveals subtle aspects of raganuga sadhana in an accessible and relatable way. It helps readers understand how to apply these profound principles in daily devotional practice.
Together, these two books provide both philosophical foundation and practical insight. One establishes the authoritative teachings, while the other brings them to life through explanation and application. This combo is ideal for serious practitioners, students of Gaudiya Vaishnava philosophy, and readers seeking a deeper understanding of spontaneous devotional service.
