In Narayaneeyam, a poetical hymn of 1036 verses, Narayana Bhattatiri (16th century) gives a masterly summary of the subject matter dealt with in the 14,000 verses of the Bhagavata Purana. A close study of this work will help one gain an insight into authentic Bhakti traditions of India in a short compass. Besides this, the book is noted for the fascinating way in which it portrays the life and achievements of Sri Krishna
If a person who lives in God becomes miserable, what is the use of living in God? What is the use of such a God? Throw such a God overboard into the Pacific Ocean. We do not want such a God!
