Ending Glorification

Chapter 11, 12, 13

Suta Goswami concluded his narration by glorifying the Supreme Lord in His Universal Form. He also discussed the sun-god, an expansion of the Lord, who regulates the planetary motion accompanied by six different associates in every month.

He then summarised the main subjects and stories of the Twelve Cantos, and pronounced the glories of hearing this epic literature. Srimad-Bhagavatam will undoubtedly create a revolution in the impious lives of this world’s misdirected civilisation. Of the 400,000 Puranic verses, Suta Goswami established the 18,000 of Srimad-Bhagavatam to be the most confidential, and encouraged everyone to read it, live it and distribute it, and in this way attain the supreme goal of life. The final verse of Srimad-Bhagavatam confirms that the chanting of the holy names will uproot all of one’s sinful reactions. Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu, the ideal preacher of Srimad-Bhagavatam, inaugarated the sankirtana movement to spread this knowledge to every town and village in the world.

Suta Goswami thus concluded his beautiful narration of Srimad-Bhagavatam.
