Seeing the Spiritual Form of the Lord (Srimad Bhagavatam #38)

In the previous two chapters, Lord Kapila described the constitution of the universe, the nature of the soul, and the entanglement in the illusory material world. He then concluded that devotional service is the supreme process to become free from this conditioning. Now, in chapters 28 and 29, Lord Kapila will explain the process of devotional service in more detail.The first step in order to become fixed in devotional service is to fix the mind. Once the mind is fixed, we can meditate in the personal form of the Lord. This meditation is the essence of the process of devotional service. Without meditating in the form of the Lord, we become stuck in a quasi-impersonal platform, where we may accept intellectually the idea of devotional service, but we are not really capable of seeing Him as a person.
