"Śabda-brahma, spiritual sound, forcibly cleaves one's consciousness from the impenetrable citadel of the body-mind complex and becomes self-manifest upon the platform of sandhini, its own inherent potency of transcendent existence. The direct experience of this sound in the form of the personal audience of the Godhead, Śri Krsna, is the central thesis of the Gaudiya philosophers."
By the causeless mercy and inspiration of Paramarādhyatama Śrī Guru-pādapadma Nitya-lilā-pravişța Om Vişnupāda aştottara-śata Śrī Śrimad Bhaktivedanta Nārāyaņa Gosvāmī Mahārāja we are overjoyed to present the first English edition of this priceless jewel among spiritual discourses entitled Gaudiya-darśana. Based on a lecture by Prabhupāda Śrila Bhaktisiddhānta Sarasvati Thakura at the Albert Hall, Calcutta, on 11th August 1929, Gaudiya-darśana was originally printed in Bengali in the Gaudiya weekly journal. This English translation is based on the third Bengali edition printed by the Gaudiya Mission (21* September 2015) and the Hindi edition published by Śrī Śrīmad Bhaktivedanta Nārāyaņa Gosvāmi Mahārāja (1st September 2009).
Expressing his astonishment, Śrī Śrimad Bhaktivedanta Nārāyaņa Gosvāmī Mahārāja has commented:
"Although at the beginning of Śrila Prabhupāda's speech the churning of the subject of sphota may seem to be somewhat technically challenging, as his discourse progresses, it appears just as if someone is distributing without restraint the vast treasure of profound realizations from the storehouse of his personal bhajana.
"I have unflinching conviction that, upon reading this Gaudiya-darśana, all impartial faithful seekers will recognize the divine splendour of the Śrī Brahma-Madhva-Gaudiya Sampradaya and not fail to be intensely attracted.
