Śrī Brahma Saṁhitā

The Brahma Saṁhitā is a Sanskrit Pāñcarātra text composed of verses of prayer believed to have been spoken by Lord Brahma, glorifying Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa. It is revered within Gauḍīya Vaiṣṇavism, and it contains a highly esoteric description of Śrī Kṛṣṇa in his abode, Goloka. Some verses from the Brahma Saṁhitā have been rediscovered by Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu, the 16th-century founder of Gauḍīya Vaiṣṇavism. The scripture has been translated into English and is often sung or recited as both a devotional and philosophical text. ​The Brahma Saṁhitā portrays the spiritual place of transcendental pastimes of Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa and provides a comprehensive understanding of the nature of the Supreme Lord and the spiritual realm. Various commentaries and translations by different scholars have added to the depth and understanding of this sacred text.
