The Nārada-bhakti-sūtra, compiled by Sage Nārada, is a foundational text in the path of bhakti and Vaiṣṇavism. As one of the Lord’s greatest devotees, Sage Nārada stands as a role model and an expert guide to all aspiring devotees. In these bhakti sūtras, he has extracted the essence of devotion and presented it concisely in only 84 verses. Each sūtra is infused with the insight of one who truly lives bhakti to its fullest.

Maximising the effect of this wisdom by His commentary, Paramahamsa Vishwananda has added the only missing ingredient: practical application. How can I actually live such elevated principles today? How do I walk this path in this present time and in my current circumstances?

Paramahamsa Vishwananda has answered these questions and many more in these pages, making this a vital handbook of devotion for anyone who considers themselves a bhakta on the path to God Himself. It is tailor-made for our times, by the most extraordinary spiritual Master of our times.
