What are the beautiful yet strictly disciplined internal attitudes that must be deeply ingrained in the heart of anyone who genuinely wishes to follow Srila Rupa Gosvami? In this book, the foremost follower of Rupa Gosvami, Srila Raghunatha dasa Gosvami, reveals the determination of mind needed to reach the highest goal. These eleven nectar-filled and striking instructions to his 'brother mind' are truly meant for the dedicated practitioner and sincere seeker. "O wicked mind, although you take up the path of sadhana, you imagine yourself purified by bathing in the trickling urine of the great donkey of deceit and hypocrisy." [Verse 6]
Sri Manah-siksa by Srila Raghunatha Dasa Goswami features commentaries such as Bhajana-darpana and Manah-siksa Bhasa by Srila Bhaktivinoda Thakur, along with insights from contemporary Vaisnavas like Sivarama Swami, Sacinandana Swami, Bhaktivijnana Swami, and Urmila Devi dasi.
