Śrīmad Bhāgavata Purānam also known as Śrīmad Bhāgavatam, or Bhāgavata is one of the “18 Mahapurana texts” of Vedic Culture and Teachings. A Classical work in Sanskrit language – a Treasure house of Vedanta Philosophy, human psychology and Divine plays of the Lord – Written by Veda Vyasa Rishi. The text comprises twelve skandas (cantos or books) with 335 chapters and some 18,000 verses with its primary focus on devotion to the Lord.

Bhagavan Sri Ramakrishna was very much fond of this Prema Shastram (Love-Scripture) and had a vision that the Bhagavatam is Lord Krishna himself. It teaches the humanity, how to love the entire creation and the creator unconditionally.

Longing to hear of the glory of the Lord before death, King Parikshit requested the Sage Śukacharya recites the Bhāgavatam to him in seven days. The Bhāgavatam takes the form of a story recounting Veda Vyasa’s work being recited for the first time by his son Sage Śukacharya to the dying King Parikshit, who owes his life to the Lord Krishna.

The Bhāgavatam includes many stories well known in Vedic tradition, including the various manifestations of the Lord. It was the first Purana to be translated into a European language, with three French translations.

A monk of our Ashrama has conducted series of classes on Srimad Bhagavatam. Every week, we will upload one lecture in this section. All the lectures are in English language and in mp3 format.
