Mādhurya Kādambinī means "Sweet Clouds" referring to the mercy of Caitanya Mahāprabhu. The living entities in this desert-like world are looking eagerly for a rain shower from those clouds. This was written by Śrīla Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura.
This work explains in details about the stages of bhakti. This is helpful for a sādhaka to understand where one is positioned in the practice of bhakti, what is the next immediate goal, and an overall roadmap of attaining the nitya līlā of Kṛṣṇa.
In this 17-hour series of presentations, I read the original Sanskrit text and explain it in English. For those interested in reading the entire work in English, I recommend the translation by HH Bhānu Svāmī Mahārāja, available as a Kindle Book.
The playlist for the entire series is available on YouTube: YouTube Playlist. Below is the list of links to the originally recorded videos on Facebook, which are of slightly better quality.
