The story of Sukadeva Goswami comes to an end. Predictions about Kali Yuga and disappointing news for those who want to stay in the material world for a long time. The departure of Maharaja Parikshit and a detailed description of Vedic literature and in particular the Puranas. The story of Markandeya Rishi – the only one who saw the end of the world with his own eyes and survived. And at the end – a brief overview of the entire Srimad-Bhagavatam and its glorification.

“Srimad-Bhagavatam” is an impeccable purana. It is very dear to Vaisnavas because it describes the highest, absolutely pure knowledge intended for paramahamsas. The Bhagavatam reveals the means of liberation from material activities and describes the paths of transcendental knowledge, renunciation and devotion. Anyone who diligently tries to understand the Srimad-Bhagavatam, who listens properly and recites it with devotion, becomes completely liberated (Bhag. 13/12/18).
