2 SB 1.2.17 — Śrī Kṛṣṇa, the Personality of Godhead, who is the śṛṇvatāṁ sva-kathāḥ kṛṣṇaḥ
Paramātmā [Supersoul] in everyone’s heart and the benefactor of puṇya-śravaṇa-kīrtanaḥ
the truthful devotee, cleanses desire for material enjoyment from
the heart of the devotee who has developed the urge to hear His hṛdy antaḥ stho hy abhadrāṇi
messages, which are in themselves virtuous when properly heard vidhunoti suhṛt satām
and chanted.
3 SB 1.2.18 — By regular attendance in classes on the Bhāgavatam naṣṭa-prāyeṣv abhadreṣu
and by rendering of service to the pure devotee, all that is nityaṁ bhāgavata-sevayā
troublesome to the heart is almost completely destroyed, and
loving service unto the Personality of Godhead, who is praised bhagavaty uttama-śloke
with transcendental songs, is established as an irrevocable fact. bhaktir bhavati naiṣṭhikī
4 SB 1.2.19 — As soon as irrevocable loving service is established in tadā rajas-tamo-bhāvāḥ
the heart, the effects of nature’s modes of passion and ignorance, kāma-lobhādayaś ca ye
such as lust, desire and hankering, disappear from the heart. Then
the devotee is established in goodness, and he becomes ceta etair anāviddhaṁ
completely happy. sthitaṁ sattve prasīdati
5 SB 1.2.20 — Thus established in the mode of unalloyed goodness, evaṁ prasanna-manaso

of the Personality of Godhead in the stage of liberation from all
material association.

6 SB 1.2.21 — Thus the knot in the heart is pierced, and all bhidyate hṛdaya-granthiś
misgivings are cut to pieces. The chain of fruitive actions is chidyante sarva-saṁśayāḥ
terminated when one sees the self as master. kṣīyante cāsya karmāṇi
dṛṣṭa evātmanīśvare
7 SB 1.2.28-29 — In the revealed scriptures, the ultimate object of vāsudeva-parā vedā
knowledge is Śrī Kṛṣṇa, the Personality of Godhead. The purpose vāsudeva-parā makhāḥ
of performing sacrifice is to please Him. Yoga is for realizing Him. vāsudeva-parā yogā
All fruitive activities are ultimately rewarded by Him only. He is vāsudeva-parāḥ kriyāḥ
supreme knowledge, and all severe austerities are performed to vāsudeva-paraṁ jñānaṁ
know Him. Religion [dharma] is rendering loving service unto Him. vāsudeva-paraṁ tapaḥ
He is the supreme goal of life.

8 SB 1.3.28 — All of the above-mentioned incarnations are either ete cāṁśa-kalāḥ puṁsaḥ
plenary portions or portions of the plenary portions of the Lord, kṛṣṇas tu bhagavān svayam
but Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa is the original Personality of Godhead. All of
them appear on planets whenever there is a disturbance created indrāri-vyākulaṁ lokaṁ
by the atheists. The Lord incarnates to protect the theists. mṛḍayanti yuge yuge
9 SB 1.3.40 — This Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam is the literary incarnation of idaṁ bhāgavataṁ nāma
God, and it is compiled by Śrīla Vyāsadeva, the incarnation of God. purāṇaṁ brahma-sammitam
It is meant for the ultimate good of all people, and it is all-
successful, all-blissful and all-perfect. uttama-śloka-caritaṁ
cakāra bhagavān ṛṣiḥ
 niḥśreyasāya lokasya
dhanyaṁ svasty-ayanaṁ mahat
10 SB 1.3.43 — This Bhāgavata Purāṇa is as brilliant as the sun, and it kṛṣṇe sva-dhāmopagate
has arisen just after the departure of Lord Kṛṣṇa to His own abode, dharma-jñānādibhiḥ saha
accompanied by religion, knowledge, etc. Persons who have lost
their vision due to the dense darkness of ignorance in the Age of kalau naṣṭa-dṛśām eṣa
Kali shall get light from this Purāṇa. purāṇārko ’dhunoditaḥ
11 SB 1.4.25 — Out of compassion, the great sage thought it wise strī-śūdra-dvijabandhūnāṁ
that this would enable men to achieve the ultimate goal of life. trayī na śruti-gocarā
Thus he compiled the great historical narration called the
Mahābhārata for women, laborers and friends of the twice-born. karma-śreyasi mūḍhānāṁ
śreya evaṁ bhaved iha
iti bhāratam ākhyānaṁ
kṛpayā muninā kṛtam
12 SB 1.5.10 — Those words which do not describe the glories of the na yad vacaś citra-padaṁ harer yaśo
Lord, who alone can sanctify the atmosphere of the whole jagat-pavitraṁ pragṛṇīta karhicit
universe, are considered by saintly persons to be like unto a place
of pilgrimage for crows. Since the all-perfect persons are tad vāyasaṁ tīrtham uśanti mānasā
inhabitants of the transcendental abode, they do not derive any na yatra haṁsā niramanty uśik-kṣayāḥ
pleasure there.
13 SB 1.5.11 — On the other hand, that literature which is full of tad-vāg-visargo janatāgha-viplavo
descriptions of the transcendental glories of the name, fame, yasmin prati-ślokam abaddhavaty api
forms, pastimes, etc., of the unlimited Supreme Lord is a different
creation, full of transcendental words directed toward bringing nāmāny anantasya yaśo ’ṅkitāni yat
about a revolution in the impious lives of this world’s misdirected śṛṇvanti gāyanti gṛṇanti sādhavaḥ
civilization. Such transcendental literatures, even though
 imperfectly composed, are heard, sung and accepted by purified
men who are thoroughly honest.
14 SB 1.5.12 — Knowledge of self-realization, even though free from naiṣkarmyam apy acyuta-bhāva-varjitaṁ
all material affinity, does not look well if devoid of a conception of na śobhate jñānam alaṁ nirañjanam
the Infallible [God]. What, then, is the use of fruitive activities,
which are naturally painful from the very beginning and transient kutaḥ punaḥ śaśvad abhadram īśvare
by nature, if they are not utilized for the devotional service of the na cārpitaṁ karma yad apy akāraṇam
Lord?
15 SB 1.5.17 — One who has forsaken his material occupations to tyaktvā sva-dharmaṁ caraṇāmbujaṁ harer
engage in the devotional service of the Lord may sometimes fall bhajann apakvo ’tha patet tato yadi
down while in an immature stage, yet there is no danger of his
being unsuccessful. On the other hand, a nondevotee, though fully yatra kva vābhadram abhūd amuṣya kiṁ
engaged in occupational duties, does not gain anything. ko vārtha āpto ’bhajatāṁ sva-dharmataḥ
16 SB 1.5.18 — Persons who are actually intelligent and tasyaiva hetoḥ prayateta kovido
philosophically inclined should endeavor only for that purposeful na labhyate yad bhramatām upary adhaḥ
end which is not obtainable even by wandering from the topmost
planet [Brahmaloka] down to the lowest planet [Pātāla]. As far as tal labhyate duḥkhavad anyataḥ sukhaṁ
happiness derived from sense enjoyment is concerned, it can be kālena sarvatra gabhīra-raṁhasā
obtained automatically in course of time, just as in course of time
we obtain miseries even though we do not desire them.
17 SB 1.5.20 — The Supreme Lord Personality of Godhead is Himself idaṁ hi viśvaṁ bhagavān ivetaro
this cosmos, and still He is aloof from it. From Him only has this yato jagat-sthāna-nirodha-sambhavāḥ
cosmic manifestation emanated, in Him it rests, and unto Him it
enters after annihilation. Your good self knows all about this. I tad dhi svayaṁ veda bhavāṁs tathāpi te
have given only a synopsis. prādeśa-mātraṁ bhavataḥ pradarśitam
18 SB 1.5.22 — Learned circles have positively concluded that the idaṁ hi puṁsas tapasaḥ śrutasya vā
infallible purpose of the advancement of knowledge, namely sviṣṭasya sūktasya ca buddhi-dattayoḥ
 austerities, study of the Vedas, sacrifice, chanting of hymns and avicyuto ’rthaḥ kavibhir nirūpito
charity, culminates in the transcendental descriptions of the Lord, yad-uttamaśloka-guṇānuvarṇanam
who is defined in choice poetry.
19 SB 1.5.38 — Thus he is the actual seer who worships, in the form iti mūrty-abhidhānena
of transcendental sound representation, the Supreme Personality mantra-mūrtim amūrtikam
of Godhead, Viṣṇu, who has no material form.
yajate yajña-puruṣaṁ

20 SB 1.7.4 — Thus he fixed his mind, perfectly engaging it by linking bhakti-yogena manasi
it in devotional service [bhakti-yoga] without any tinge of samyak praṇihite ’male
materialism, and thus he saw the Absolute Personality of Godhead
along with His external energy, which was under full control. apaśyat puruṣaṁ pūrṇaṁ
