book on early post-Alvar Vaishnavism

From the Bhakti List Archives

• September 23, 1996


Dear Bhaktas,

I have recently learned that ``The Way and the Goal,''
Prof. Vasudha Narayanan's book on early Sri Vaishnava
bhakti, is being republished and is available for
purchase.  This was one of the first books that I
ran across in the UC Berkeley library on Sri Vaishnavism,
and I must say I found it very enlightening. There
are presentations and discussions of the works 
of Yamunacharya, Ramanuja, Kuratthalvan, Parasara Bhattar,
etc.

Those who are interested can contact South Asia books
at (573) 474-0116.  The price should be about $16 including
shipping, but I am not sure.
