Scholars of religion and seekers in general will find Forms of
Krishna: Collected Essays on Vaishnava Murtis to be an informative
introduction to Indic philosophy and Vaishnava history,
particularly in terms of Krishna's form and the underlying
theological and scriptural background for the worship of his iconic
image. For those who are already so informed, many details of
Krishna and his worship are unveiled for the first time (at least
in the English language), and this is especially so for the much
beloved icons explored in these pages, whose full story may be hard
to find, even in Sanskrit and Bengali literature. Just as Krishna's
form and its many variants are central to Gaudiya Vaishnava
thought, the entire philosophy of Indian spirituality, including
yoga and meditation, can be understood through these forms in both
direct and indirect ways. Steven J. Rosen, well known in the field
as founding editor of the Journal of Vaishnava Studies, brings his
vast learning to bear, as readers are brought into the esoteric
world of Vaishnavism.
