Srila AC Bhavtivedanta Swami Prabhupada has , under the directions of Srila Bhaktisiddanta Sarasvati Goswami Maharaja and Srila Bhaktivinod Thakur , and ultimately the direction of Sri Caitanya Mahāprabhu who had empowered the six Goswami’s of Vrndavana, presented the Srimad Bhagavatam to the world. It is the natural commentary on the Bramha Sutra,  the condensed form of the four Veda . The Bhagavatam contains the teachings also of the Puranas, and the Itihasas, including the Mahabharata.
Its important to note many substantial practical lessons are contained for a systematic development of spiritual culture for everyone of all occupations or spiritual standing . The Bhagavatam brings to our attention the descriptions of many varieties of spiritual planes along with the different relationships the living beings enjoy in association with Divinity in His many forms as well as  His many branched families and friends…

The smiling face of the Bhagavatam , which are  just over twenty chapters of the confidential pastimes of Krishna in His Dhira Lalita form, are purposely minimal but are elaborated upon in the Smriti of the Gaudia Vaisnava acaryas.

Every relationship with Divinity is glorious in their own way, and so are the devotees who have preferences for particular relationships or forms of Divinity.

The Bhagavatam is a practical guide for everything and everyone,  that’s why it’s presented to all people,  it applies to everyday living but also trancendental living , everything is spiritual in its own way . Thus, the Bhagavatam brings the peripherals and the cor together . We cannot just present the cor , neither can we just present the peripherals.

The expert Bhagavat , personification of the Bhagavatam knows the art of both the cor and peripherals .

Thus, AC Bhaktivedanta Swami’s society ISKCON has its footprints all over the world and is systematically bringing the understanding of all things spiritual.

It’s not the technical society as such but individuals within it as well as those who are loosely connected to it , including those from other Gaudia Vaisnavas groups who know what AC Bhavtivedanta Swami was doing and why and bow down before him .
