Text

“Although I am the lowest of men and have no knowledge, the inspiration to write transcendental literatures about devotional service has been mercifully bestowed upon me. Therefore I am offering my obeisances at the lotus feet of ÅšrÄ« Caitanya MahÄprabhu, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, who has given me the chance to write these books.â€
