Vaisnava-siddhanta-mala

Based on Prameya-ratnavali of Sri Baladeva Vidyabhusana, Vaisnava-siddhanta-mala is a lively presentation of the nine prameyas, or truths. Clear and simple answers are given to many questions, such as, "What is the guru-paramapara?" "What is the sakti, or potency, of Bhagavan?" "If the pastimes ofSri Krsna are beyond matter, then how were they able to be seen at the end of Dvapara-yuga?" "If Bhagavan is attained through the soul's own self-manifested knowledge, then what is the necessity of studying the Vedic scriptures?" "Are all souls of one type or are there different gradations among them?" This book also contains an authoritative deliberation on the subject of the holy name and the different stages of chanting.
