My humble request
Respects to all
Sri Vrndavan das Thakura
We all love to read Sri Chaitanya Bhagavat for me it much sweeter then Sri Krsna Lila, and not so difficult to read as Sri Chaitanya caritamrita. I first read this book in 1998 as I was given photo copy of the complete book.
When I got my computer a few months later I started searching the internet other translations of the same book. Around the year 2000 I bought the one volume English translation.
Over the years I was still searching for a complete English translation with slokas, and a far as I know there is only one complete translation being made, and I had a few volumes. I did not like them.
Srila AC Bhakti Vedanta Swami Prabhupada my diksh guru was empowered by Lord Nityananda Prabhu to spread Gauranga Krsna consciousness all over the world, and translate books with his purports.
Since his leaving his earthly pass time's others have tried to translate in the same vain. When I read I would like to read Sri Chaitanya Bhagavat as it is; verse by verse; this way I would get the feel of Sri Vrndavan das Thakura telling his story of Sri Nitai Gaurangas pass times.
As with the English Sri Chaitanya Bhagavat translation I hardly ever put it down until I finished it. Such nectar on every page.
The purport translated Sri Chaitanya Bhagavat version; it was very hard to follow the flow of the book even if I just reading the slokas and translation of the book it became too much for me turning three or more page untill he next sloka.
All these years and we are still waiting for a completed Sri Chaitanya Bhagavat with slokas.
My humble request please some one complete the sloka translation of Sri Chaitanya Bhagavat.
The bengali Sri Chaitanya Bhagavat is almost pocket size.
