"Bahina Bai" offers a profound exploration into the life and spiritual legacy of one of India's most significant female poet-saints. Born in the 17th century, Bahinabai was a devoted disciple of the celebrated saint Tukaram and a vital figure in the Varkari Bhakti movement of Maharashtra. This work focuses on the translation and interpretation of her "abhangas"-devotional verses that capture her intense religious experiences, her struggles as a woman within a traditional social framework, and her unwavering commitment to the deity Vithoba.

Through her verses, Bahinabai provides a rare and intimate look at the intersections of domestic life and radical spiritual devotion. Her poetry is noted for its emotional resonance and philosophical insight, serving as a critical historical record of female religious expression in pre-modern India. This volume, meticulously translated and edited by Justin E. Abbott, serves as an essential resource for readers interested in Hindu devotional traditions, Indian philosophy, and the enduring power of mystical literature. The text highlights Bahinabai's unique voice, ensuring her contributions to the Bhakti tradition remain accessible to a global audience.
