Bhakti Vijñāna Gosvāmī is a Gauḍīya Vaiṣṇava sannyāsī who teaches chiefly in Russian, best known for his expositions of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam. His classes characteristically set a narrative inside the structure that explains it — the astronomy behind a calendar observance, the Vedic conception of time behind a vow — so that a practice is taken up with its reasoning attached rather than on authority alone. The lectures are given in Russian and are set out here in English.
