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)
We should at least know what we should pray for. We have to be clear that this should be our only prayer – ‘Krishna, let me never forget you. Let my mind always be fixed on you.’ Whether we are asleep or awake or eating, our mind should always be on Krishna, that should be our mood.
