– Who is qualified to study Srimad Bhagavatam and under whose shelter can one realize its truth?

– Srimad Bhagavatam is pre-eminently the book in India. Once enter into it and you are transplanted, as it were, into the spiritual world where gross matter has no existence. The true follower of Srimad Bhagavatam is a spiritual man who has already cut his temporary connection with phenomenal nature and has made himself the inhabitant of that region where God eternally exists and loves.

This mighty work is founded upon inspiration and its superstructure is upon reflection. To the common reader it has no charms and is full of difficulty.

We are, therefore, obliged to study it deeply with the assistance of such great commentators as Sridhara Swami and the Divine Caitanya and His contemporary followers. (The Bhagavat: Its Philosophy, Its Ethics & Its Theology)

– What should we ask from God according to Srimad Bhagavatam?

– Srimad Bhagavatam does not allow its followers to ask anything from God except eternal love for Him. (The Bhagavat: Its Philosophy, Its Ethics & Its Theology)

– Why is Srimad Bhagavatam not accepted by everyone?

– Because of great fortune, a living entity develops a taste for Srimad Bhagavatam, which is the crest jewel among all religious literature that is available in the world. (Sajjana-toshani 9/12)

– Can an impartial critic refrain from glorifying the conclusions of Vyasadeva’s Srimad Bhagavatam?

– The critic should first read deeply the pages of Srimad Bhagavatam and train his mind in the best eclectic philosophy that the world has ever obtained, and then, we are sure, he will publicly praise the college of theology at Badarikasrama.

Natural Brotherhood (Bhaktivinoda Thakura):

BhaktiVinoda Thakura

"Gradually, when the offensive portions of the established religions are destroyed, there will be no more differences in the bhajana performed by the various Sampradayas nor any quarrel between them.

Then as brothers, the people of all castes and countries will spontaneously chant the Holy Names of the Supreme Lord together.

At that time, no one will hate anyone or consider others dogeaters; nor will anyone be overwhelmed by the pride of high birth.

The living entities will not forget the principle of natural brotherhood."
