Hidden in ancient Sanskrit and Bengali texts is a secret teaching, a blissful devotee (bhakti) tradition that includes sacred joint singing (kirtana), mindfulness practices (japa, smaranam), and deepening relations with God (race). These unprecedented teachings were transmitted by Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu (1486-1533) and fully documented by his immediate followers, the six Goswami Vrindavana, from master to disciple in the Gaudiya Vaishnava lineages.
