Canto Six describes the epic pastimes of Ajamila’s near-death experience, Daksa’s unsavoury encounter with Narada, and Indra’s confrontation with Vritrasura. There are numerous twists and turns, and the most unexpected events transpire! Such epic pastimes reveal how bhakti can liberate the living entity from any amount of material entanglement, and quickly bring one into contact with the Supreme Personality of Godhead.

“Our subject matter is most sublime: the glorification of the holy name of God. This subject was discussed by Maharaja Pariksit and Sukadeva Goswami, who noted that a brahmana, who was very fallen and addicted to all kinds of sinful activities, was saved simply by chanting the holy names of Krishna. This is found in the Sixth Canto of Srimad-Bhagavatam, an epic work by Vyasadeva describing the pastimes of Lord Krishna and elaborating on the philosophy of Krishna consciousness.”

~ Srila Prabhupada, Krishna Consciousness: The Matchless Gift, Chapter 2
