Summary: What distinguishes the Bhagavata Purana is not only it's exhaustive account of the life of the Lord's fullest manifestation on earth as Sri Krishna Avatara,but His fullest teaching to his beloved disciple Uddhava on the eve of His withdrawal from the world,which sometimes goes by the name of Uddhava Gita.This teaching,not withstanding what the historians say of it's age and authorship,is regarded by many as a development and an elucidation of the instructions He had givento Arjuna on the battlefield of Kurukshetra and from the cekebrated Bhagavadgita. The contemplative student should not be misled by the easy presentation and widely disffused instructions of the Bhagavata to permit a single useful point to slip into oblivion.He will then find all his questions answered,even those of which he has been vaguely aware but unabale mentally to grasp or formulate,and all his problems solved.Therefore to allow its blazing light to dispel the darkness of primeval avidya from the mind,constant repetitions and an intensely close study of it are most essential.
