With a hundred verses divided into four sections, the Hymn to the Lord of Badarī is a rare work of artistic elegance, of philosophical depths and of emotional beauty. Penned by the great sage, Swami Tapovanam, it presents a summary of the highest Truth, charting a clear path for the seeker to follow. Written during his sojourns to the pilgrim centre of Badarinath, the garland of hymns explores the entire spectrum of Vedānta, from discussing superimposition and negation to elaborating on the spiritual practices to be followed and the results we experience.

Swami Chinmayananda's translation and commentary of the Badarīnātha Stotram helps the seeker use these pregnant words as anchor, to lift themselves out of the morass and into the divine Light.
