PLATE ONE

Thousands of years ago, Yudhisthira Maharaja was the most exalted
and respected king of India. During a great gathering of sages, he took
the opportunity to inquire from the exalted saint Narada Muni about the
principles of the eternal religious system, by which one can attain the
ultimate goal of life. Narada Muni, the supreme spiritual master of
human society, instructed King Yudhisthira on the behavior of perfect
persons, the organization of the perfect society, and ideal family life. He
taught the path of spiritual liberation leading to the understanding of the
Supreme Personality of Godhead, Sri Krsna. Maharaja Yudhisthira thus
learned everything from the descriptions of Narada Muni. After hearing
these instructions, he felt great pleasure from within his heart, and in
great ecstasy, love and affection, he worshiped Lord Krsna. ( Pp: 23-292)
