Sri Chaitanyas Life and Teachings - The Golden Avatara of Divine Love

This book focuses on one of the greatest saint/avat¿ras of all time: ¿r¿ Chaitanya Mah¿prabhu. This charismatic religious leader popularized song and dance as a yogic science and conveyed teachings as relevant today as they were in his native Bengal some five hundred years ago. This is the story of how his message spread throughout the world.
