Śivarāma Swami’s graceful rendition of Rūpa Gosvāmī’s and Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura’s eight-stanza poems that serve as meditations on the spiritual master, Caitanya Mahāprabhu, and Rādhā-Kṛṣṇa. The ācāryas have presented these three aṣṭakas as a means to nourish attraction to Caitanya Mahāprabhu and Rādhā-Kṛṣṇa through the grace of the initiating and instructing spiritual masters.
