English annotation by Vishnudut1926: This is a typical Gopala-Tantra with the very heavy accent on Govinda/GopijanaVallabha Mantras — a kind you can find within Shree Nimbarka-Sampradaya, for example.

I am reading it this week — good, solid Tantra, NOT a kind of sentimental, village, anti-Vaishnava mumble-jumble, you can often meet in illiterate cults, dedicated to Kali-Yuga Krishna.

Maybe, I will publish a couple of articles about this Tantra, but can’t promise!

The full name of the edition:
