Lectures and Commentaries on Srimad Bhagavatam Canto 3, made in Vrindavan (India)
The purpose of Śrīmad Bhāgavatam is to glorify the Supreme Absolute Truth, known as Śrī Kṛṣṇa, for the benefit of the suffering humanity. Śrī Vyāsa himself calls this Purāṇa the ripened fruit of the Vedic tree and compares it to the personification of rasa, or devotional relish. It is to be tasted by the rasikas, the connoisseurs of rasa, and relished by the sahṛdayas, the sober-hearted people or those whose hearts are imbued with sattva (SB 1.1.3)
You can offer anything to Krishna, but you have to offer it with love. You have to offer it with some awareness. You really have to offer it from your heart. Don’t just offer it mechanically. Even if you have some bad habit, offer it to God. Because eventually your consciousness will change and you will think, why am I doing this to God?
