- Description
The Teachings of Queen Kunti originally appear in the First Canto of Srimad-Bhagavatam. Queen Kunti 's celebrated prayers consist of only twenty-six couplets, yet they are considered a philosophical, theological, and literary masterpiece. The book includes those inspired verses and illuminating commentary by His Divine Grace A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada, Founder-Acarya of the International Society for Krishna Consciousness and the most renowned Vedic scholar and spiritual leader of our time
Queen Kunti's prayers, recorded and immortalized in the Srimad-Bhagavatam, India's greatest philosophical and spiritual classic, are the simple and illuminating outpourings of the soul of a great and saintly woman devotee. They reveal both the deepest transcendental emotions of the heart and the most profound philosophcal and theological penetrations of the intellect. Her words have been recited, chanted, and sund by sages and philisophers in India for thousands of years.
Queen Kunti, a tragic and heroic figure, emerges from an explosive era in the history of ancient India. She was a central figure in a complex political drama that led to a bloody fratricidal war for the Indian throne. Yet through all her sufferings she found an inner wisdom and strength that carried her people through the time of crisis.
