About the book 

This book Parikrama pertains to circumambulation of twenty five wings of the Supreme Abode i.e. Paramdham. All religious scriptures have preferred to remain silent about the name, form, plays and home of the Supreme Lord, but Mahamati Prannath has provided detailed account of Paramdham in this book. The learned people were so far not able to hypothesize the grandeur, wealth, grace and prosperity of that eternal region while Mahamati has done it in terms of worldly language. This book was descended upon him during the period Samvat 1740 to 1748 when he was staying at Panna, known as Padmavati Puri Dham.

The book begins with a section on eternal love. The concept of love has been clarified by stating that one can attain the nearness to the Lord only by means of love based devotion and details of His abode can be known through the route of selfless love. Without love the acts of worship do not lead to one's entry there. The importance of prayers, repeated remembrance of the features of Paramdham, understanding of the spiritual knowledge of awakening soul and true devotional worship have been vividly included here. The various forests of cereals, honey and mahavan, seven banks of river Yamuna, Pukhraj Mountain, Kausar Lake, Maanik Mountain, seven circumambulations, eight oceans and other features have been very explicitly described. All this is the wealth of the souls. The pleasure giving plays and games; where Lord Raj, His consort Shyama and all other souls participate and enjoy to their hearts' content, have been narrated in very lucid language.
