Bhagavatam is factual history

Verse 1.3.41: Bhagavatam is not a mythology. The goal of Britishers was to prove that we are fools, and hence they were successful in getting Bhagavatam to be a mythology. But that is not a fact.

First of all, Bhagavatam is factual history, that happened in this and other planets. And Srila Vyasadev compiled it. The beauty is that it has stories of all things related to Lord Krishna. So two things: it is history for sure and it is all about Krishna.

Bhagavatam has a purifying effect, on the person who is speaking and who is listening too.
Eg: Ganga, she is so pure. Even after 100 years, the water from Ganga is always pure. This is so because she is coming straight from the higher planetary systems.

The point is that, science does not know so many things.
Bhagavatam is therefore not mythology. But it should be heard from a bonafide source, for the effect to take place, the purifying affect.
