Krishna Prerit Kagvani
₹200.00₹170.00
Inspired by the divine figure of Lord Krishna, this inaugural volume unveils a treasury of spiritual insights and deeper meanings. Through poetic expressions, Kagbapu explores devotion, righteousness, and the soul’s eternal bond with the divine, drawing from the Bhagavad Gita’s timeless teachings. The title "Krishna Prerit Kagvani" reflects dual reverence: it honors Lord Krishna’s celestial wisdom and pays homage to Maharaja Krishnakumarsinhji Gohil of Bhavnagar, a visionary leader with whom Kagbapu shared a profound bond, whose noble surrender of his kingdom first united India post-independence. It invites reflection on purpose and higher truth.
The immortal poetic voice of Lok Kavi Dula Bhaya Kag lives on across the eight volumes of Kagvani. Few poets have possessed his singular gift for breathing life into words — turning verse into something that pulses with feeling and conviction. On the occasion of Padma Shri Dula Kag's birth centenary, these revised and expanded new editions of all eight volumes were brought forth to carry his voice to new generations of readers.
Running through every poem in this collection are the echoes of the highest values Kag Bapu lived and wrote by — vat (word of honour), vachan (given promise), and vyavahar (right conduct) — rendered with the courage, dignity, and generosity of spirit that defined his character. These verses reach back into the roots of classical Gujarati poetry even as they remain timeless in their appeal.
For anyone seeking to experience the enduring joy of Gujarati literary heritage, the Kagvani collection is essential reading.
