and the Supreme Lord Sri Krishna Chaitanya

Printed and offered to the Lotus Hands of Sri Acharyadev His Divine Grace Srila Bhakti Sundar Govinda Dev-Goswami Maharaj on 15th May, 1992, the Holy Appearance Day of the Supreme Lord Sri Sri Nrsimhadev, on the year-long Golden Jubilee Festival of Nabadwip Sri Chaitanya Saraswat Math 1991–1992, this holy book is not presented here for online reading.

"When we attain the mercy of the Supreme Lord by faithfully following the four-headed Lord Brahma, and when we become fit recipients of the Supreme Lord's grace as a result of singing with a pure heart the divine songs of His unending glories, at that moment we shall know the genuine fruition of our reading, recitation or singing of Brahma-samhita. This book is absolutely devoid of the lowly connotations that would titillate the poor minds of those obsessed with vulgarity. Rather, we must know that the aim of this holy text is to provide new strength and relief to those sapped of their vital energy through their perverse tendencies."
