ABOUT THE BOOK
The Process of Inquiry is a profound spiritual guide based on the discourses of Srila Gour Govinda Swami Maharaja. This book serves as a technical and devotional "how-to" for the most critical step in spiritual life: Paripraśna (sincere and submissive inquiry).
The title is derived from the Bhagavad-gītā (4.34), where Lord Kṛṣṇa instructs Arjuna to approach a spiritual master and inquire from him. Gour Govinda Swami argues that without the correct process of inquiry, a seeker remains a mere "tourist" in the spiritual world, never gaining actual realization.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Srila Gour Govinda Swami was famous for his "cutting" and "visceral" style of preaching. He never compromised the truth to make it palatable for the masses. He lived the philosophy of inquiry himself—having spent years searching for his Guru, Srila Prabhupada, and once finding him, spent his life inquiring into the deepest meanings of the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam.
