Result of Receiving
The Bhgavatam gives auspiciousness (ivadam) to the hearers and release one from the threefold miseries (tpa-
trayonmlanam). That doesnt mean there would be no difficulties for a devotee in this world, but it means that
the Bhgavatam equips the sincere devotee with the consciousness to see misery as mercy of the Lord. Thus he
doesnt experience the misery like a materialistic person does. By hearing Bhgavatam which is most auspicious
(rmat), Lord Ka, the shelter of everything, is immediately brought under control and captured (avarudhyate) in
the heart by the accomplished persons (ktibhi), the persons devoid of selfishness (nirmatsarm). This indicates
that prema arises in the devotees, since the Lord is brought under control only by prema. Since Ka becomes
supremely blissful by being trapped in the heart filled with prema, this also indicates that Ka is happy and filled
with prema when the devotees hear Bhgavatam. This result is not achieved by any other scripture or other
practices (ki v parai). [SB 1.1.2 V]

ANALOGY ARENA
Lamp
rmad-Bhgavatam is compared to a lamp (ya svnubhvam, SB
1.2.3, kasmai yena SB 12.13.19), because, just as a lamp destroys the
darkness by its light, the Bhgavatam destroys nescience by delineating
the transcendental features of the Absolute Truth, Ka. The topics of
creation and destruction (sarga and nirodha) are considered to be the
lamp, since those topics reveal only the general aspect of the Lord.

Sun
rmad-Bhgavatam is compared to the Sun (ke sva-dhmopagate, SB 1.3.43),
because, just as the Sun destroys the darkness and gives joy, the Bhgavatam destroys
the misconception of the demons and gives pleasure to the devotees. Like the sun among
the planets, it shines among the Puras. It has twelve forms (volumes), just as the sun
has twelve forms for each of the months of the year. Secondary creation (visarga),
maintenance (sthna), protection (poaa) and other topics (ti, manvantara,
nukath and mukti) are considered to be the sun since they reveal, in addition, the
results of forbidden practices for enjoyment and renunciation available in dharma,
artha, kma, moka and their unlimited sub-varieties.

Tasty Fruit
rmad-Bhgavatam is compared to a tasty fruit (nigama-kalpa-taror, SB
1.1.3). Bhgavatam is compared to tasty fruit for it reveals to us madhura-
rasa and pure bhakti. Topics dealing with the appearance and pastimes of
the Lord (raya) and His devotees, and with bhakti and prema, are
considered to be the tasty fruit of rasa.

Mohin-mrti
rmad-Bhgavatam is compared to Mohin-mrti (di-madhyvasneu, SB
12.13.11-12) who gave nectar to the devotees and hid it from demons. Similarly
Bhgavatam reveals the sweet topics of the Lord to the devotees, the rightful
recipients. But for the non-devotees, Bhgavatam gives some different meanings
unfavorable for bhakti, bewildering them. The Supreme Lord is full of all aktis and so
is the Bhgavatam. Just as Ka appeared in different ways to the different groups of
people in the wrestling arena of Kamsa (SB 10.43.17), Bhgavatam, being nondifferent
from Ka, also can reveal different meanings to different readers (adhikris of this
stra), according to their disposition.

rmad-Bhgavatam is like a desire tree. With eighteen thousand verses like its leaves,
it has appeared like a desire tree to fulfill the goals of the great devotees. (SB 1.1.1 V)

In the first three chapters of the Bhgavatam we prominently find the conclusive descriptions
of the glory and supremacy of (i) Bhgavatam, the transcendental literature (SB 1.1.2-3,
1.3.40-44), (ii) Bhakti, the process of devotional service (SB 1.2.6-22), and (iii) Bhagavn, the
Personality of Godhead r Ka (SB 1.1.1, 1.3.28, SB 1.2.28-29).
