Sage & Seekers

Sage and Seekers contains a collection of quotes that encapsulate the essence of the ancient path of bhakti-yoga (seeking connection with the Absolute through loving devotion). They have been spoken or written by om visnupada Sri Srimad Bhaktivedanta Narayana Gosvami Maharaja, whose full immersion in bhakti surcharges his words with the power to enlighten. Herein, we present to fellow seekers words from our spiritual guardian that have spiritually nourished us.

Our desire is to share with the world the wisdom our beloved Gurudeva has distributed: essential truths illuminating the science of self (the undying soul within us all), the esoteric nature of God and our eternal connection with Him. These teachings have manifested in our lives a joyful discovery and hope that belongs freely to all, whether or not one has prior familiarity with the philosophy of bhakti-yoga.
