Description

Of the many religious traditions in the world, almost all of them adopt various methods to propagate their respective ideals. With this in mind, they publish literature in different languages.

It is self-evident that in the realm of secular education there are elementary, intermediate and advanced levels, as well as higher and lower branches of learning. Similarly, it is self-evident – and those who are widely read and deeply learned in comparative religious studies universally admit it – that there are gradations of knowledge in the metaphysical teachings of the diverse religious traditions.

Jaiva dharma reveals the ultimate development of the path of pure devotion to the English speaking world. Jaiva Dharma gives an unprecedented and poignant analysis of many vital topics, such as, bhagavata tattva, the truth regarding Sri Bhagavan, jiva tattva, the truth regarding the jivas, sakti tattva, the truth regarding Bhagavans potencies, the conditioned and liberated states of the jivas, a comparative study of the nature of karma, jnana and bhakti, a conclusive and meaningful discussion of the distinguishing characteristics of regulated and spontaneous devotional service, vaidhi and raganuga bhakti, and the supreme excellence of sri nama bhajana, chanting the holy names. All these topics are discussed in terms of sambandha, our relationship with God, abhidheya, acting in that relationship, and prayojana, the ultimate goal or perfection.
