reference guide for the beginner who reads the original Srimad Bhagavatham for the first time.

We are all playing various roles in our lives – as a child, student, teacher, employee, employer, spouse, parent….. what not? Bhagavatham throws light into all these areas of our life and helps us play them efficiently. Yes, life becomes effortless like a play!
How can Bhagavatham help us in this stressful and challenging modern life? Or, what is the benefit of understanding Bhagavatham? These questions are answered in Bhagavatha Mahatmyam.

Before going on to Bhagavatham, let us start with Bhagavatha Mahatmyam which gives us insight into the importance of listening to and reciting Bhagavatham Bhagavatha Mahatmyam (The Glories of Srimad Bhagavatham)

The Bhagavatha Mahatmyam comprises six chapters and is found in the Padma Purana, Uttara Khanda (193 – 198). This contains the story of Bhakti Devi and her two dying sons Jnanam (Knowledge) and Vairagyam (Renunciation), which means observation (jnanam), devotion (bhakti) and engagement (dispassion or vairagyam); developing these qualities is the easiest way for getting out of our problems.
