Book Description

About the Book

"Sankaradeva," according to the late Prof. Vasudev Sharan Agarwal, "was like the glorious sun under whose warmth of mind Assam blossomed like a lotus of thousand petals."

About the Author

Dr. Maheswar Neog, professor at Guwahati University, was a well-known scholar and indologist besides being well versed in Assamese language and literature. He wrote and edited several classics in Assamese and Sanskrit, including Sankaradeva and His Times, which is considered the most comprehensive and up-to-date account of the modern Vaishnava movement in Assam.
