DR.E.PRAVEEN KUMAR –
I was searching for an authentic commentary on the Srimad Bhagavatham. In my vain search outside, i couldn’t get an appropriate book as usual. I suddenly remembered the saying of Sri Thakur to Swamiji – “There is no spirituality present outside which cannot be present here (meaning himself).” I knew of the greatness of Tapasyananda Maharaj but i thought that he has only given a faithful translation of the original. But when i went through the introduction, i realized that his genius at work. The scholarly introduction is bound to satisfy the curiosity of the discerning aspirant who will get sufficient hints to decipher the complex and lavish use of symbols, metaphors and anecdotes related to the Lord. The personification of various tattvas get due treatment in his introduction and prologues which clear various doubts of sincere seekers. Waiting for a digital and improved version/edition.
