Summary |
"Sree Krishna, the Lord of Love" by Baba Premananda Bharati is a philosophical treatise written in the early 20th century. The work delves into profound concepts of Hindu spirituality, creation, and the nature of love as embodied by Lord Krishna. The book seeks to convey Hindu thought in its purest form, emphasizing the cyclical nature of existence and the quest for eternal happiness through spiritual awakening and love. The opening of the text presents a preface where the author establishes his purpose: to illuminate readers about the universe's creation, humanity's spiritual essence, and the eternal quest for happiness, which he asserts ultimately leads back to Krishna, the embodiment of love. It discusses the nature of existence, the importance of spiritual consciousness, and the cyclical processes of creation and dissolution, all while inviting readers to understand their true selves beyond physical existence. The introduction emphasizes the pursuit of true happiness as a fundamental human quest and proposes that this profound joy can only be sourced internally through love and spiritual realization, setting the stage for deeper explorations in the chapters that follow.
