Vilāpa-kusumāñjali refers to “a handful of flower-like offerings of piteous cries.” The 104 verses are like an outpouring of the deepest longings of the author for attainment of the eternal service of Śrī Rādhā. Traditionally, a commentary should also be given its own distinct name. Śrī Raghunātha Dāsa Gosvāmī has named his text Vilāpa-kusumāñjali and compared it to a handful of flowers. Though the author has not given a specific name to his commentary out of his innate humility, his writing can be compared to “words inscribed
upon a petal” of those flowers and thus be called Patrāṅkitā.
Exquisitely presented with 4-colour, high-quality paper, gilt-edged and with original artwork, this book is truly literary and visual art, a unique and beautiful production that takes the reader on a magnificent journey with Raghunātha Dāsa Gosvāmī and Rati-mañjarī into the intimate and longed-for world of service to the lotus feet of Śrīmatī Rādhārāṇī.
