Going Beyond Vaikuntha

These translated lectures comprise the immaculate commentary of Śrīla Bhaktivedānta Nārāyaṇa Gosvāmī Mahārāja on Śrīla Sanātana Gosvāmīpada’s Śrī Bṛhad-bhāgavatāmṛta. Descriptions given tell how, having recently arrived in Śrī Vaikuṇṭha-dhama, the most desirable of places and which entrance into is sought after by unlimited saintly persons, Gopa-kumāra is feeling despondent and cannot even ascertain the cause of his own dissatisfaction. At that time he is approached by Śrī Nārada Ṛṣi, who becomes his śikṣā-guru (instructing spiritual master) and enlightens him with the tattva necessary to complete his spiritual journey.
