Since time immemorial, yogis, sages, and mystics have forsaken the pleasures of the ordinary world and gone to secluded places to meditate, eager to attain even a momentary vision of Sri Krishna, the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Fifty centuries ago that same Krishna descended from the transcendental world to reveal on earth His eternal spiritual pastimes, and the great sage Vyasa carefully recorded them in the Bhagavata Purana. This book is a summary study of the Tenth Canto of that Purana, written by His Divine Grace A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada, the foremost teacher of bhakti-yoga in the modern age. The accounts in this book will fascinate you with their descriptions of spiritual adventure and romance. And they will reveal to you the secret of how to embark on a journey to a transcendental realm beyond space and time.

This book is gratefully dedicated to the kindly memory of two eminent physicians, long since gone from this earth plane, who professionally observed my fourth physical eclipse by rheumatic fever; and who hopefully assured me, as I fluttered weakly from the shadow, that I could never pass thru it again. When I received their bills I was sure I could not.

"To bring you into the throne-room of your being, that you may awaken in self-realization, is why I have prepared this course of lessons. Should you give five minutes a day to them, in a year you will know the joy there is in Life, in Power, and in Service." -Foreword
