yatha dharmadayas cartha<br />

muni-varyanukirtitah<br />

na tatha vasudevasya<br />

mahima hy anuvarnitah<br />

Although, great sage, you have broadly described the four principles<br />

beginning with religious performances, you have not described the<br />

Bhagavata Dharma, the glories of the Supreme Lord Vasudeva. Once<br />

Narada Muni met the Pracetas, the sons of Pracinabarhi (the descendant<br />

of Prithu, the son of the king Vena) and they said, O great sage, O<br />

Brahmana, we hope you met with no disturbances while coming here. It is<br />

due to our great fortune that we are now able to see you. By the travelling<br />

of the sun, people are relieved from the fear of the darkness of night - a<br />

fear brought about the thieves and rogues, similarly your travelling is like<br />

the Sun's, for you drive away all kinds of fears. Then <strong>Sri</strong> Narada Muni said<br />

(Bhag. 4/31/9,14)<br />

taj janma tani karmani<br />

tad ayus tan mano vacah<br />

nrnam yena hi visvatma<br />

sevyate hair isvarah<br />

When a living entity is born to engage in the devotional service of the<br />

supreme personality of God head, who is supreme controller, his birth, all<br />

his fruitive activities, his life-span, his mind and his words are all factually<br />

perfect.<br />

yatha taror mula-nisecanena<br />

trpyanti tat-skandha-bhujopasakhah<br />

pranopaharac ca yathendriyanam<br />

tathaiva sarvarhanam acyutejya<br />

As pouring water on the root of a tree energizes the trunk, branches, twigs<br />

and everything else, and as supplying food to the stomach enlivens the<br />

senses and limbs of the body, simply worshipping the Supreme Lord <strong>Sri</strong><br />

Krisna through devotional service automatically satisfies the demi gods,<br />

who are parts of the Supreme Lord. Once devarsi Narada came to Dvaraka<br />

and met Vasudeva the father of supreme Lord <strong>Sri</strong> Krisna. <strong>Sri</strong> Vasudeva<br />

asked him about Bhagavat Dharma. In that connection Narada Muni<br />

narrated the conversation between Nemi, the King of Videha and the<br />

Nabayogendras (Kavi, Havi, Antariksa, Prabudha, pippalayana, Abirhotra,<br />

Drumila, Camasa and Karabhajana nine sons of Rusabhadeva). These nine<br />

sages travelled through the whole of India and came to Videha, where king<br />

Nemi, the father of Janaka was performing a Yajna with risis. Seeing them<br />

he became happy and asked them about Bhagavat Dharma<br />
