We’re on page 86 of the pdf or page 65 of the book.

Hare Krishna, welcome! Friday night is Bhagavatam night here in Bhaktiville. Last week we read verses 2 and 3 from the first chapter. One of the salient points was that “As soon as one attentively and submissively hears the message of Bhagavatam, he becomes attached to the Supreme Lord.“ We’re not saying that “submissively” means that you take it all in without questioning. While listening, we may have questions. That’s normal. Asking questions in a mood of wanting to sincerely know the answers is also the approach given here. All of Srimad Bhagavatam is gifted to us to develop our relationship with the Supreme Lord, Sri Krishna. So, let’s continue with verse 4 tonight. We’re on page 80 of the pdf or page 59 of the book.

Hare Krishna, welcome to Bhaktiville! Last week we finished reading the first verse of Srimad Bhagavatam. We learned from that verse that by reading this Srimad Bhagavatam, we are meditating upon the eternally effulgent Lord, the Absolute Truth, the cause of all causes, the transcendent reality of the universe, Lord Sri Krishna. Let’s continue on to verse 2 and see what’s next. We are on page 51 of the book or page 72 of the pdf.

Hare Krishna, welcome to Bhaktiville! We are reading Srimad Bhagavatam on Fridays now. Last week we started the very first verse of Srimad Bhagavatam. They say that Srimad Bhagavatam is the cream of all the Vedas. Imagine skimming the cream off the top of some fresh, whole milk. It has all the beautiful qualities of fresh milk and it’s rich, creamy, and delicious. That’s Srimad Bhagavatam — the rich, creamy, delicious teachings of the Vedas.

And, as a side note, Srimad Bhagavatam contains 18,000 verses. We have a long way to go but they say that a journey of a thousand miles begins with one step. So, a journey of 18,000 verses begins with the first one. Here we go. We are on page 46 of the book or page 67 of the pdf.

Hare Krishna. Welcome to Bhaktiville, and welcome to our first reading of Srimad Bhagavatam in Bhaktiville!

There is a lot of preliminary material to read and learn before we read the first verse. Today we’ll review the prayers we sing before reading Srimad Bhagavatam along with the explanations or purports of these verses. If we have time, we’ll start to read the introduction.

I also want to note that this reading will have a somewhat flexible ending time. We’ll try to end at the half-hour point, but may often go over that time. Forty-five minutes will be the absolute limit of our reading, we won’t go past that.

Seven verses on Sunday! Our reading of Bhagavat Arka Marici Mala this morning ended with a cliff hanger.

Hare Krishna, everyone, welcome to Bhaktiville. Last week was our last night of reading from “The Teachings of Queen Kunti.” Tonight is our big surprise! We asked Madhukar das to chant and record all the verses for us. So, tonight we’ll chant all of the verses in Sanskrit, then listen to them all in English. This is from Srimad Bhagavatam, Canto 1, Chapter 8, verses 18-43

Next Friday, on May 3rd, we will begin our reading of Srimad Bhagavatam, Canto 1. We will conduct this class just like in the temples. We’ll learn and sing the preliminary glorification verses of Srimad Bhagavatam before each reading, then read and repeat the verses and word-for-word translation, then read and discuss the translation and purport.

Hare Krishna.

24/04/2024

Ooops, forgot to post this on Sunday. Here's what we read from Srila Bhaktivinode's "Bhagavat Arka Marici Mala."

Hare Krishna. Welcome everyone, welcome to Bhaktiville. We have been reading “The Teachings of Queen Kunti” since September 8th and have met 26 times. This is the last chapter and our last reading of this text. Or, is it? I have a surprise. Bhakti Mimulus asked Sriman Madhukar das, a kirtan expert and all-around nice Brahmachari, to record the chanting of all of Queen Kunti’s conversation in these Srimad Bhagavatam verses, 1.8.18 — 43. Next week, we’ll chant all the verses together with him. So exciting, so please join us!

The following Friday, on May 3rd, we will begin our reading of Srimad Bhagavatam, Canto 1. We will conduct this class just like in the temples. We’ll learn and sing the preliminary glorification verses of Srimad Bhagavatam before each reading, then read and repeat the verses and word-for-word translation, then read and discuss the translation and purport.

For tonight, we’re on page 216 of the pdf or page 197 of the book. This is Chapter 26, titled “Enchantment

Hare Krishna! Seven Verses on Sunday, 7 verses from Srila Bhaktivinode's Bhagavat Arka Marici Mala. This reading is the end of the Sambandha section which has described the material world, the living entity, and Krishna, and the relationship between all three. Next week will begin the Abhidheya section which analyzes our engagement in the spiritual process. This is what we're reading today. I encourage you to follow the links to read Srila Prabhupada's purports, they're very enlivening. Haribol!

April 12th

Hare Krishna! Welcome everyone! Tonight in our reading of The Teachings of Queen Kunti, we’re on Chapter 25, “Unalloyed Devotion,” which begins on page 207 of the pdf or page 18 of the book. Next week we will finish our last chapter of the book! I have a surprise at that time, which we will do on April 26th, and then we will start the First Canto of Srimad Bhagavatam on May 3rd. This chapter is a little long, so I want to get started right away.

As always, you can find a pdf copy of the book here to follow along or for further study:https://prabhupadabooks.com/pdf/TeachingsOfQueenKunti.pdf
