We must understand what is “Priyam” and what is “Hitham” for us and others. Priyam is doing a favour that may retard growth and Hitham is doing something that promotes growth even if it is not pleasurable. Dhruva’s mother and Guru did only “Hitham” for him. Even the King’s emotional mind could be moved towards repentance with his Thapas. So, remember, when you live as an example, many people are learning from you!

Here Dhruva’s difficulties for six months gave him a lifetime achievement and much more – an immortal glory. While living here and after leaving this planet, we must shine like “Dhruvanakshatram”.

Dear Devotees,

As we can not hold the ocean in a small spoon, we can not bring the enchanting beauty of Srimad Bhagavatham into the small pages of this web site. We request you to take our humble effort as a pointer to this Holy Text. If it inspires you to read further and study Bhagavatham in depth, we are truly blessed. 

HariOm!
