Srimad Bhagavatam #04: Incarnations of Krishna (chapter 1.3)

In most of this course, we will be studying two or three chapters per lesson, as far as possible trying to cover an entire topic on each section. However, we are going slowly for now because these are foundational chapters that have a lot of important information, and more or less summarize the contents of the whole Srimad Bhagavatam.Just like the second chapter gives a concise description of the process of devotional service, the third chapter gives us a description of the incarnations of Krsna which will be explained in more detail during the whole Srimad Bhagavatam. The third chapter also includes a special verse, the paribhasa-sutra of Srimad Bhagavatam.The paribhasa-sutra is the verse that gives the essence of the whole book. Just like a king reigns over all subjects, the paribhasa-sutra is the verse that reigns over all other verses. All the verses of the Srimad Bhagavatam must be understood under the optics of this paribhasa-sutra if one hopes to understand the correct conclusion of the text. Since this is such an important verse, we can’t miss it! Get full access to Mysteries of the Vedas (Caitanya Chandra Dasa) at www.ccdas.net/subscribe
