In this book, the author has removed all the ornamentation and decorations, and just kept the basic skeleton of the Mahapurna with all the main elements. The essentials of the text have been brought out by the author and explained in a plain and simple way. The book is a convergence of Bhakti yoga, Karma yoga and Jnana yoga. The Bhagavatam is considered the essence of all Vedic wisdom. The Bhagavat Purana is made up of ten sections and many stories of the Purana are told in this book. One will find Krishna’s story in the Mahabharat, the story of Pururavas and the celestial nymph Urvashi, King Trishanku’s story of wanting to enter the heavens in his earthly body, Yayati and Devyani’s story, and many other interesting tales.
