A Shower Of Divine Compassion

By Bhajahari Dasa

Feb 9 2011, London, England — ANY DEVOTEE that has NOT yet read Srila Prabhupada’s Poems as presented in the book “A Shower of Divine Compassion” has it all to look forward to.

I found reading this sublime book (which can be either read through quite quickly or slowly savoured) possibly the most profound experience that I have ever had from reading Srila Prabhupada’s words.

Do yourself a MASSIVE favour and by hook or by crook get a copy of these poems. All Glories to Srila Prabhupada.
(below is a review that expresses my feelings about this ‘intensely personal book’)

“Srila Prabhupada’s poems expose his intense eternal love and devotion to Lord Krishna, the transcendental cowherd boy playing in beautiful forests of Vrindavan.

They show his personal and intimate connection with the preaching mission of his spiritual master, Srila Bhaktsiddhanta Sarasvati Thakur Prabhupada, his dedication to the orders of his spiritual master, and his personal distress at what happened in the Gaudiya Matha after the disappearance of Srila Bhaktsiddhanta.

I am unable to properly express the beauty, majesty and power of A Shower of Divine Compassion. I spent a couple of days reading it and through this book Srila Prabhupada gave me such an increase in inspiration and enthusiasm to push on, to try and advance in Krishna consciousness, even though there are so many obstacles on the path.

I believe this book is an essential read for any follower of Srila Prabhuapda. These poems of Srila Prabhupada give an intensely personal glimpse into Srila Prabhupada’s unfailing dedication to the mission of Lord Caitanya and his spiritual master and his direct, personal relationship with Krishna, the Supreme Personality of Godhead.”
