Of the many hundreds of poetic Sanskrit stotras—songs of glorification offered to the Supreme Lord, His devotees, and the holy places of His pastimes—King Kulashekhara's Mukunda-mala-stotra is one of the most perennially famous. Srila Prabhupada frequently enjoyed citing certain favorite stanzas from it.

The Mukunda-mala-stotra, although composed in elegant Sanskrit, is a simple expression of King Kulashekhara's devotion to Krishna and his eagerness to share his good fortune with everyone else. Like most other works of the stotra genre, it aims less at presenting a plot than at vividly and honestly expressing the true feelings of a lover of God.

With deep humility he repeatedly begs simply to be allowed to take his next births as a bird, fish, or flower in the place where Lord Krishna enacts His pastimes, and in this way to enjoy the association of His devotees. • More editions of this book, and full information here...

    Mukunda-Mala Stotra

    Posted by Bill Robinson on 20th Oct 2021

    I didn't know about this text until recently a friend who leads study groups for local devotees started a series of sessions based on this book. We've just started. Good quality printing, excellent price, prompt shipping. For a review of the text itself, you might need to wait a couple months!
