The name of Mirabai is well-known in the annals of our history. Married in an orthodox family, she became a widow at a young age. From her younger days, her devotion to Lord Krishna was proverbial. His devotional poems and her message of Bhakti deserve much appreciation from her devotees. Brindaban-Leela is respectfully attached to her name. The theme contains ten chapters which deal with her religious and devoted career. These are her early career, the divine singer, Brindaban-Leela, race of heroes, darkness to light, songs of Meera, in praise of the Lord, devotional poems, her message and legacy. This work would be useful for teachers, students and others who have much respect for Mirabai.
