In Bhagvattam, how the material world was created by the lord is very nicely mentioned but why nowhere in our scriptures it is mentioned how and where the conditioned souls actually desired to lord it over as a result of being forgetful of their relationship with Kṛṣṇa ?

    why nowhere in our scriptures it is mentioned how and where ?

    If there was a manual for repairing vehicle tyre puncture, that manual will not give details of how and where the tyre got punctured. 

    Such details are not important or necessary. What is important is that right now I can give up that desire to lord over material nature and desire to serve Krsna. I can read bhagavatam to see how great devotees have done that, how they serve Krsna and how Krsna Protects them. That is most important, 

    At any given point of time in our current state in material world we can serve Krsna and continue to serve Krsna, remember Krsna and glorify Krsna. 

    Hare Krsna

    • Thankk you prabhuji, Hare Krsna

  • The Bhagvattam details material creation, but the specific origin of the desire to dominate, born from forgetting Krishna, remains elusive in scriptures. Imagine the "where" as a cosmic Moto X3M track – souls initially stray, driven by forgotten devotion, launching themselves into the challenging terrain of material desire. Understanding this fall reveals the path back to divine relationship.
