English annotation by Vishnudut1926: I fell in love with this Agama, as Tantra it is very simple, but very impressive! The Bhakti and Sadhana Khandas are truly fascinating!

The parlance of "Shree Narada-PanchaRatra" is rather simple and the appeal is definitely to common Bhakti folk (apart from more intellectual and highbrow Orthodox "Shree PanchaRatra", for example, "Shree Lakshmi-Tantra").

Sometimes "Shree Narada-PanchaRatra" is confused with "Shree Narada-Purana", because from one point "Shree Narada-Purana" gets very Tantric twist and becomes fully fledged Vaishnava-Shakti-Tantra.

But please don't confuse. Let's compare in brief, please see the following graph (backup on box, dropbox, minus, skydrive):
