Narada Bhakti Sutras: The Complete Edition: The Timeless Path of Supreme, Selfless Love for God
Narada Bhakti Sutras: The Complete Edition
The Timeless Path of Supreme, Selfless Love for God
What does it mean to really love God, and how does that love grow in an ordinary, busy life?
For generations, seekers have turned to the eighty-four short sayings traditionally attributed to the sage Narada for the answer. This new complete edition presents every sutra in a beautifully set verse block: the Devanagari, an easy transliteration, a fresh translation, and word-by-word meanings. A warm, story-led commentary follows each one, so you can understand the sutra and also live it.
Between the teachings you'll meet the devotees who embodied them: Prahlada, the child who would not be frightened; Dhruva, the boy who went looking for a lap; the gopis of Vraja; Ambarisha, Shabari, Mirabai, Tulsidas, Chaitanya and Hanuman. Each story was checked against the scriptures and standard accounts.
Inside you'll find:
- All 84 sutras with Sanskrit, IAST, translation and word-by-word glosses.
- Practical commentary with parallels from the Bhagavad Gita and the Bhagavatam.
- Nine story interludes, plus the life of Narada himself.
- A "Living It" practice for every sutra, and reflection questions for every chapter.
- A daily bhakti rhythm and a 21-day plan with journaling pages.
- A 12-week study path for satsang groups.
- Prayers and mantras, and the complete text set out for recitation.
- A "Find Your Sutra" guide for difficult days, FAQs, an 80-term glossary and a linked index.
220 pages, about 41,800 words. Your purchase includes the EPUB for any e-reader and a print-quality PDF.
