Enhanced with forty-four stunning full-color illustrations, this volume vividly depicts key events and teachings. Authored by His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupāda, a distinguished teacher of Vedic thought and the founder of the International Society for Krishna Consciousness, this work reflects his deep understanding and commitment to Kṛṣṇa consciousness. The classic edition, first published in 1972, continues to resonate with readers, offering a fresh and living interpretation of timeless wisdom. As noted by Professor Edward C. Dimock, Jr., it significantly enriches our comprehension of this revered text.
