The ‘heart’ of Bhagwat is the tenth part of the great saints and Mahatmas, this tenth part is the life of the devotee, God is unborn, He neither takes birth nor dies, there is only ‘appearance’ of Shri Krishna, in whose life does the appearance of God take place? Me, and why does it happen, what kind of devotee is dear to God, to show mercy on the devotees, to accept their ‘worship method’, whatever be the method, God appeared only for His sake. All the pastimes were only for my devotees,The devotee who wanted salvation kept coming in front of him in the form of a demon and the one who wanted to play with him kept coming in front through devotees, friends, gopis, the aim was only one – ‘attainment of Shri Krishna’ through these means of God. ‘Description of divine pastimes’ is in this section where divine pastimes like ‘Putana Moksha’, ‘Ukhal Bandhan’, ‘Cheer Haran’, ‘Govardhan’ and Raas, Maharas, Gopigeet are divine pastimes.Listening, thinking and meditating on these divine pastimes is the essence of life.

Twelfth Skandha –
In this, the only way to avoid the evils of Kaliyuga is ‘Namasankirtan’. Death never came to Parikshit ji because before that he had already attained Samadhi and immersed himself in God. He attained supreme bliss because he had drank the nectar of Bhagwat, how could he die?

Shri Madbhagwat Mahatma –
Appearance of Uddhav ji in the festival of Kirtan, pure devotion in Shrimad Bhagwat, leela qualities in the name of Lord Shri Krishna, etc. are chanted, then they themselves reside in the heart and remove all the sorrows of the person listening and doing the Kirtan. Similarly, Just as the sun dispels darkness and the storm dispels clouds.The speech which does not pronounce the name, praises and virtues of the immortal God who lives in ghats and ghats, that speech, even if it is full of emotion, is meaningless and devoid of substance. Whatever speech it may have, even if it is full of rasa, emotion, figure of speech etc. – to the world. The glory of the purifying Lord Shri Krishna is never sung.On the contrary, it is extremely impure, in which it does not even have a beautiful composition, and which is also full of words which are corrupt from the point of view of grammar etc., but the auspicious name of God is embedded in every verse, the same speech destroys all the sins of the people. .!!
