- You should always remember that this Bhagavatam is being spoken by Sukadeva Gosvami to King Pariksit
- Your appreciation of my Spiritual Master is very commendable. We should always be very careful to give full respect to those who have so carefully handled this Divine Fruit of transcendental knowledge before us. Even a slight change will spoil it
