Jayadeva’s Geeta Govinda: The Love Song

The present English translation of Geeta Govinda, rendered by Geeta Radhakrishna. She herself is a gifted Dancer of Mohiniattam, a dance form celebrating erotic love or Sringara rasa, and she has been successful in sublimating Sringara into Bhakti rasa. Thus, she is most competent person to evoke the spirit of Geeta Govinda, through her translation, which effectively recreates the lyrical and poetic beauty of it. Geeta could dive into the depth of Geeta Govinda, where Sringara becomes transparent for Bhakti. Geeta places the widely wandered (from south to north and east to west of India) enchanting song of love at Krishna's feet for his abundant blessings.
