[Advaita-l] Madhusudana Saraswati's bhagavadbhaktirasAyana

[NARAYANA MURTHY]

Shri Murali mahaSaya
   
  namaskaram
   
  eagerly awaiting your posts on bhagavadbakthirasAyana of shri Madhusudana Saraswati swaminaH.
   
  On hearing the name of Shri MS, when one remembers "Advaitasidhi" one also remembers the famous verse :
   
  vamSI vibhushitakarAt navanIradAbhAt pItambarAt arunabimbapalAdahroshtAth
  pUrnendu sundaramukAt aravinda netrAt krushnAtparam kimapitatvamaham najAne II
   
  SishtAs say that everlasting Bhagavdvirahakanksha is the essence of krishna bhakthi irrespective of the bhAvam.
   
  if I may say so, shri MS life and works may be a pointer to the fact that there need not be virodabasam between krishna bakthi and advaita.
   
  the suffix "rasAyana" ofcourse reminds me  of another work with the same suffix by Shri BhagavannAma bodendrAl, again in advaita sampradAya. BhagavannAma rasAyana (or Bhagavan nAmAmrutha rasAyana).
