Hare Krsna
Please accept my humble obeisance. All glories to Srila Prabhupada
Sri Srimad Gour Govinda Swami Maharaja
Sriman Mahaprabhu's opinion is that Srimad Bhagavatam is the spotless proof, and it contains prema-bhakti-tattva. We accept Srimad Bhagavatam in that manner. We never aspire for any other literature. Prema-bhakti will be developed only by hearingSrimad Bhagavatam, and thereby you will be able to conquer the unconquerable — Krishna. How is Krishna conquered? He is conquered only by bhakti.
Now the month of Damodara is going on. We are daily chanting Damodarastakkam. Mother Yasoda binds Krishna. Who else can bind him? He becomes bound up only by the rope of love, the rope of prema-bhakti. Mother Yasoda has such devotion, such bhakti, suddha-vatsalya, that by such bhakti he becomes bound up. By suchbhakti he becomes conquered, and such bhakti you can develop only by hearingSrimad Bhagavatam. You may not do any other sadhana, but only hear Srimad Bhagavatam and follow the process of sravanam. Parikshit
Maharaja didn't do any other sadhana. He only heard the Bhagavatam for seven days continuously, with concentrated attention, putting full faith in it, from the lips of Shukadev Goswami, and he achieved the supreme perfection. That is the result of attentively hearing the Srimad Bhagavatam.
