The course is complete but it only covers the Eastern wave.
This work is one of the most essential books of the Gauḍīya Vaiṣṇava sampradāya. Śrī Rūpa Gosvāmī establishes in it the theoretical and esoteric foundation of sādhana-bhakti by utilizing the theory of aesthetics (rasa) developed in ancient poetic Sanskrit literature.
In this course, we study the Eastern Division that gives the definition of pure bhakti and expounds its progressive stages from beginning (śraddha, or faith) to perfection of pure love (prema). It is also an erudite exposition of the various rasas. Most important, it also teaches the correct practice of bhakti so that one can get the expected result.
Time is more valuable than money because once time is gone, we can’t get it back. So we have to be very careful on how we spend our time. With each activity we do, we should ask ourselves, is this increasing our knowledge, or helping us to reach our spiritual goal? Whenever we get any free time, the best way to utilize it is to chant or listen to a spiritual lecture.
