The Pushtimarg, or the Path of Grace, is a Hindu tradition whose ritual worship of the deity Krishna has developed in close relationship to a distinct genre of early-modern Hindi prose hagiography. This volume introduces readers to the most popular hagiographic text of the Pushtimarg - the Chaurasi Vaishnavan ki Varta, or 'Narratives of Eighty-Four Vaishnavas', which tells the sacred life stories of the community's first preceptor Vallabhacharya (1497-1531) and his most beloved disciples.
