Vaisnavism: Contemporary Scholars Discuss the Gaudiya Tradition

The topic of discussion in Vaisnavism: Contemporary Scholars Discuss the Gaudiya Tradition is an old religious tradition as seen through the lens of current study. Steven J. Rosen and twenty-five eminent scholars examine the different facets of Gaudiya via a series of stimulating debates in this book. VAisnavism—its

literature, historical progression, theological analysis, and religious practise. As the researchers share the knowledge they’ve acquired over the course of their years of study, thoughtful and, indeed, fascinating viewpoints emerge. This ancient East Indian tradition is brought to light through exploring topics such as the nature of the Absolute, devotional poetry, holy space, mystical states, and sound theology. These topics bring to light the rich beauty and profoundness of this tradition.
