— { Sri Sri Prapanna-Jivanamritam } —

Translated into English by His Holiness Sripad Bhakti Ananda Sagar Maharaj, this Divine Book was presented to the Lotus Hands of the Venerable Author, Srila B.R. Sridhar Dev-Goswami Maharaj, on the celebrated appearance day of Lord Gaurachandra, Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu, March 3, 1988, and was received with much joy and veneration by the guru-varga as well as devotees all over the world.

Srila B.S. Govinda Dev-Goswami Maharaj: "This monumental work was originally composed in the Sanskrit language. The authentic Bengali translation that was sanctioned by the author is extremely developed, profoundly exploring the heart of the book; scholars who know the internal conclusive scriptural purports can alone realize how difficult is its translation and publication into English. However, by the boundless mercy of the most magnanimous Supreme Lord Sri Chaitanya-chandra, the fountainhead of all incarnations of Godhead, and by the causeless grace of His most beloved, our Divine Master, and the pure devotees whose hearts are absorbed in divine love—this formidable task has now been fulfilled. Thus, I again and again worship the holy lotus feet of Them all."
