Guest guest Posted March 24, 2003 Report Share Posted March 24, 2003 The quote apears in Jiva Gosvami's Tattva sandarbha "It is the Samaveda of Puranas": That is, Just as the Samaveda is the most perfect of Vedas, so is the Bhagavata the most prefect of the Puranas. Therefore, we find in the Skanda Purana: "If the Bhagavata is not kept in one's house in the Kali Yuga, of what avail are collections of other scriptures by the hundreds and thousands? How can he be considered a Vaisnava who, in the Kali Yuga, does not keep the Bhagavata in his house? Even if he is a brahmana, he is lower than an outcaste. O Narada, O Sage, wherever the Bhagavata is found in the Kali Yuga, there Hari goes together with all the demigods. O Muni, that pious soul who daily recites a verse from the Bhagavata reaps the fruits of the eighteen Puranas." (Sk.P., Visnu Khanda 16/40,42,44,331) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
