Srimad Bhagavatam is light for this world!!

Verse 1.3.43: Actually, as Krishna was disappearing from this planet, He is going back to His abode, so qualities like dharma, gyana are also going back with Him. Only thing left is Kaliyuga, then how will the people manage here. The sages were worried because of this.

Then what happened, Srimad Bhagavatam descended. Vyasadev compiled it and his son Sukadeva Goswami spoke it. Maharaj Parikshit was cursed and for him and the rest of Kaliyuga, Bhagavatam was spoken. Srila Prabhupada writes that more or less almost people are just involved in the 4 things of eating sleeping mating and defending. But to elevate people, taking shelter of Srimad Bhagavatam, will help us go back to Krishna.

Srimad Bhagavatam is compared to light especially in the darkness of Kaliyuga. In this age, it is all I me and mine. Let me enjoy before I go. This is the mentality. But if we take the shelter of Srimad Bhagavatam, no other book is required in Kaliyuga.
