Verse 1.18.7 (Mohan Prji):
* Maharaj Parikshit was never envious of the age of Kali.
* Very nice verse, giving us a lot of positive aspect of the age of Kali.
* In this verse, MP is compared to the bees, which goes for the essence of the flower, not the external beauty.
* Even though this age of Kali is full of quarrel, the essence here is that it gives us an very good opportunity to be Krishna Conscious. Because, auspicious things produce good effects immediately, whereas inauspicious acts must be actually performed [to render effects] in this age.
* In previous ages, just thinking about a sinful activity in the mind, one would get the consequences of it.
* As we go ahead, SP is mentioning what is the best thing that can be done in this age.
- it is said that even though all nefarious activities of the personality of Kali are present, there is a great advantage in the age of Kali. One can attain salvation simply by chanting the holy name of the Lord.
* SP then explains the second advantage of Kali
- In the beginning of the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam it is also said that by the recitation of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, the Supreme Lord becomes at once arrested within one's heart.
* Purpose of ISKCON is just to facilitate the association of devotees for chanting and hearing from Srimad Bhagavatam.
- So the process and the facility is also given. It is just up to us to decide whether we want to continue in our materialistic life or enjoy the nectar of the spiritual life.
