The Last Word In Understanding Srimad-Bhagavatam | Lecture by Srila Prabhupada

Iskcon Bangalore Group, 13.12.2011 — This is a lecture by Srila Prabhupada on Srimad-Bhagavatam 1.2.11 given in Vrindavana in the year 1972.

“The Absolute Truth is realized in three different features, according to the capacity of realization of the person. Those who are trying to approach the Absolute Truth by exercise of the senses, they can reach up to the point of impersonal Brahman. Those who are searching out the Absolute Truth by meditation, by mystic yogic practices, they can realize the Paramatma feature of the Absolute Truth. And those who are engaged in devotional service, they realize the Absolute Truth as the Supreme Personality of Godhead.
Actually, we have to reach to the point of Personality of Godhead, person. Before that, Brahman realization and Paramatma realization, that is partial realization of the Absolute Truth, because Krishna says in the Bhagavad-gita, brahmanah aham pratistha.”
