TRANSLATION OF WRITE-UP IN ENGLISH - GOD said the above words to Shri Uddhavji.
GOD says that those who are intelligent and clever creatures, the culmination of their intellect lies in the fact that they should attain GOD from their perishable and false human body. The creature is born in the world and attempts to achieve a lot. Though he acquires worldly things through his efforts, but all this is meaningless because he misses to attain GOD. He does not even try to attain GOD in his lifetime. We have got his human life only to attain GOD.
Therefore, trying to attain GOD should be the biggest goal of our life.
GIST FOR ALL RELIGIONS
- The human body is the best means provided by GOD to attain GOD.

TRANSLATION OF WRITE-UP IN ENGLISH - GOD said the above words to Shri Uddhavji.
GOD says that the one who surrenders himself to GOD, GOD gets very pleased with him. GOD frees him from all bondages and provides him salvation. GOD says that such a creature becomes united with GOD after meeting GOD. Shelter of GOD and self-surrender before GOD is of great importance. When we become dependent and dedicated to GOD, then GOD accepts us. The shelter of GOD and self-surrender to GOD is the height of devotion. The creature should always attempt to reach this pinnacle by undertaking devotion.
Therefore, the creatures should accept the shelter of GOD and offer a self-surrender to GOD.
GIST FOR ALL RELIGIONS
- We must take the shelter of GOD and make a self-surrender to GOD.

TRANSLATION OF WRITE-UP IN ENGLISH - GOD said the above words to Shri Uddhavji.
After listening to the detailed message of GOD, Shri Uddhavji folded his hands in greeting and fell in the Divine Lotus Feet of GOD and asked Him what is the order of GOD for him now. GOD said to him to stay in Badrikashram and to experience the teachings given by GOD in solitude there. The thing to be noted here is that we should contemplate the preaching of GOD in solitude. We also listen to GOD’s teachings in Shrimad Bhagavad Geetaji and in other Scriptures but forget them. It is compulsory to contemplate and think about the preaching of GOD in solitude only then they show their effect and do our welfare.
The creature should not listen to the teachings of GOD just for the sake of listening but contemplate them thoughtfully in solitude.
GIST FOR ALL RELIGIONS
- GOD’s teaching and preaching must be contemplated thoughtfully in solitude.

TRANSLATION OF WRITE-UP IN ENGLISH - GOD Shri Shukdevji said the above words to King Shri Parikshitji.
After completing all the works of His pastime GOD decided to go back to His dwelling. When GOD left from the earth then with GOD truth, religion, patience, glory and grandeur also went away. One principle is rendered from this fact that wherever GOD resides, virtues also reside there. Therefore, if we want to bring virtues in our life then we have to bring GOD in our life. When GOD will come into our life by devotion then with GOD all virtues will also come as the shadow of GOD. There will be no other effort required to call those virtues separately.
Therefore, there should be only one goal in life that by devotion GOD should come in our life.
GIST FOR ALL RELIGIONS
- If we bring GOD into our life through devotion, all virtues will automatically come in our life.

TRANSLATION OF WRITE-UP IN ENGLISH - GOD Shri Shukdevji said the above words to King Shri Parikshitji.
GOD Shri Shukdevji gave a detailed description of Kaliyug (modern era) in reply to the question of King Shri Parikshitji. Kaliyug will become such a huge burden because in Kaliyug neither religion nor virtue will remain. In such a situation, to protect the religion and virtues, GOD will take incarnation. GOD is omnipresent and Almighty. GOD is the protector and true owner of this world. Therefore, GOD will take incarnation to protect religion of sages and decent persons and to cut bondage of their deeds and to free them from the cycle of birth and death.
GOD always comes to protect religion because religion is dependent on GOD.
GIST FOR ALL RELIGIONS
- GOD protects the religion and virtues in all eras.

TRANSLATION OF WRITE-UP IN ENGLISH - GOD Shri Shukdevji said the above words to King Shri Parikshitji.
As long as the Divine Lotus Feet of GOD Shree Krishnaji used to touch the earth, Kaliyug (modern era) was not able to come on earth. When GOD will again take Shree Kalkiji incarnation in Kaliyug, Kaliyug will wind up and Satyug will begin. It renders a principle that till GOD resides on the earth, Kaliyug cannot exert any impact. The same principle also applies to our life that till we live in the contiguity of GOD, the defects of Kaliyug will not be able to affect us. As soon as we lose the contiguity of GOD, we will have the influence of Kaliyug’s defects.
Therefore, in order to avoid the defects of Kaliyug in life, it is mandatory to remain in the contiguity of GOD.
GIST FOR ALL RELIGIONS
- We must always remain in the contiguity of GOD so that virtues reside in us.

The praise of GOD is the destroyer of all evils. Therefore great saints and sages purify their speech by praising GOD. By praising GOD the creature gets ultimately blessed. Those who keep the unique loving devotion in the Divine Lotus Feet of GOD, they should regularly listen and narrate the divine praise of GOD. Singing the praise of GOD is an infallible means to avoid the evils of Kaliyug (modern era). When devotion for GOD awakens in our heart then our heart automatically starts enjoying the praise of GOD.
The creature should make a sequence of praising GOD and listening to the praise of GOD in his daily life.
GIST FOR ALL RELIGIONS
- The praise of GOD leads to our ultimate welfare.

TRANSLATION OF WRITE-UP IN ENGLISH - GOD Shri Shukdevji said the above words to King Shri Parikshitji.
GOD is the supreme Father of the entire world. GOD is the supreme master of the entire world. By bowing down their heads in the Divine Lotus Feet of GOD, all surrender everything to GOD. After surrendering his everything to GOD, a creature gets blessed. GOD’s grandeur is infinite. We cannot even imagine the grandeur of GOD. Therefore, we must surrender our everything to such a supreme Father and supreme master whose grandeur is infinite. But we will only be able to do this only after devotion is awakened within us.
Therefore, the creature must surrender his everything to GOD by awakening the devotion towards GOD in his heart.
GIST FOR ALL RELIGIONS

While describing the glory of the name of GOD, GOD Shri Shukdevji says that at the time of death or in any helpless situation if a creature pronounces any name of GOD then he receives the best of the best result. At the time of death, if the creature is able to pronounce the name of GOD then he becomes free from all his deed bondages and attains the best position. But in order to do this, we have to practice pronouncing GOD’s name from the very beginning. It is not possible that suddenly at the time of death the creature can pronounce the name of GOD. But the one who chants the name of GOD from the beginning, for him this becomes possible.
Therefore, the creatures should practice pronouncing the names of GOD from the very beginning of his life, so that he can succeed in doing so at the time of death.

TRANSLATION OF WRITE-UP IN ENGLISH - GOD Shri Shukdevji said the above words to King Shri Parikshitji.
There are many flaws in Kaliyug (modern era). In Kaliyug there is place fault, there is object fault and on top of all, there is a fault in the creature’s consciousness. But when GOD comes and resides in the heart by devotion then because of the contiguity of GOD all the faults are destroyed immediately. GOD comes and resides in the creature’s heart because of listening, chanting, contemplating and worshipping GOD’s form, quality, pastime and name. When this happens, the creature retires from all the faults of Kaliyug. Also, what is the matter of the sins of one or two births, GOD also destroys the pile of sins of thousands of births in a moment. As soon as GOD resides in the heart of the creature, all the inauspicious rituals of Kaliyug are eradicated forever.
Therefore, the creature must bring GOD in his heart by taking the shelter of GOD’s devotion.
GIST FOR ALL RELIGIONS
- GOD eradicates the heap of sins of thousands of births of a creature in a split moment.

TRANSLATION OF WRITE-UP IN ENGLISH - GOD Shri Shukdevji said the above words to King Shri Parikshitji.
GOD Shri Shukdevji says that from studies, austerity, pranayama, pilgrimage, fasting, donation and chanting etc., the heart of the creature cannot be purified in the same way as it happens automatically when GOD resides in his heart. The simplest means to make GOD reside in the heart is the devotion of GOD. When GOD resides in the heart of the creature due to devotion, then the soul of that creature gets completely purified. The heart of all devotees of GOD is pure because they take the shelter of devotion and get success in making GOD reside in their heart.
Therefore, the creatures must try to make GOD reside in their heart by undertaking devotion in life.
GIST FOR ALL RELIGIONS
- Devotion enables GOD to reside in the heart of the devotee.

TRANSLATION OF WRITE-UP IN ENGLISH - GOD Shri Shukdevji said the above words to King Shri Parikshitji.
Kaliyug (modern era) is full of big flaws. But a great feature of Kaliyug is that in Kaliyug it is very easy to attain GOD. In Kaliyug, only by chanting the name of GOD, we can attain GOD. This is because in the midst of the flaws of Kaliyug it is very difficult to do meditation, perform Yagna, service and worship of GOD, therefore only and only by chanting the name of GOD we get such results which we attain in other eras by performing big means. In Satyug the means to attain GOD was the mediation of GOD, in Treta it was worshipping of GOD by performing big Yagna and in Dwapar the means was ritually performed service and worship of GOD.
Therefore, after getting birth in Kaliyug we should undertake the simple means and should keep an aim to attain GOD in life.
GIST FOR ALL RELIGIONS
- In the modern era, the means to attain GOD is kept very simple and easy.

TRANSLATION OF WRITE-UP IN ENGLISH - GOD Shri Shukdevji said the above words to King Shri Parikshitji.
GOD is the only shelter for all creatures. GOD is the shelter of all the powers also. It is not possible for anyone to completely describe the Holy pastime narration of GOD. No Deity or Scripture is capable of fully describing the Holy pastime of GOD. GOD Shri Shukdevji says that in Shrimad Bhagwatji Mahapuran he has described the GOD’s Holy pastime very briefly because to completely describe the Holy pastime narration of GOD is not possible even for him. GOD’s Holy pastimes are infinite therefore whatever description we find in the Scriptures is only a brief description.
Therefore, we should firmly endorse the fact in our heart that the Holy pastimes of GOD are infinite and whatever we hear is merely a brief description of them.
GIST FOR ALL RELIGIONS
- No one can sing the complete glory of GOD and no one can completely describe the Holy pastime narration of GOD because they are infinite.

He was so thrilled by the vision of GOD that his entire pores and all senses became elated. His body became ecstatic, tears started splashing from his eyes, which blocked his vision. He bowed his all organs in front of GOD and welcomed GOD with his thunderous speech. He offered seat to GOD, washed the Divine Lotus Feet of GOD and worshipped GOD. While doing so he felt as if GOD was showering His grace on him.
Whoever sage, saint or devotee has visualized GOD, had such a unique experience.

GOD is bound by the love bond of devotees who worships Him. We cannot bind GOD in any other bondage. GOD only and only gets bound by the bonds of love and devotion. We cannot bind GOD with glory or by grandeur. GOD accepts only one bond and that bond is the bond of love. If we look at the character of all devotees, one thing we will find in common that everyone loves GOD very much.

The sages and saints who have knowledge of the Vedas recite, worship and meditate constantly to attain GOD. There is no one more knowledgeable than sages and saints because they know the wisdom of the Vedas and the Scriptures. Despite being knower of everything, they have one purpose and one goal that they should attain GOD in life. By making the only purpose of receiving GOD’s realization in life, they endorse their lives in prayer, worship and meditation of GOD. We should also take a lesson from them that after getting human birth, we should also make attainment of GOD as the main aim of our life.
What our ancient sages and saints have done for us is their favor to guide us.

TRANSLATION OF WRITE-UP IN ENGLISH - Shri Markandeya Muni said the above words while praising GOD.
In this verse, six adjectives have been used for GOD. GOD is Antaryami i.e. He is the knower of everything. There is nothing that we can hide from GOD. GOD is ubiquitous means He is present everywhere. There is no such place where GOD is not there. GOD is in all Forms means in everyone’s form GOD is there. Other than GOD there is nothing in this world. GOD is Jagadguru means the first master of this world is GOD. GOD is the master of all the masters. GOD must be worshipped supremely means GOD is the most appropriate to be worshipped by creatures, sages and saints. Nobody is worthy of worship except GOD. GOD is pure form means GOD is the only one who is pure in this world.
Even though we can use numerous adjectives for GOD, still we cannot describe even a little bit of GOD.

TRANSLATION OF WRITE-UP IN ENGLISH - At what level the devotion of GOD takes a seeker, it can be understood here by looking at the condition of Shri Markandeya Muni.
Shri Markandeya Muni visualized GOD everywhere. He visualized GOD in the fire, in Shri SuryaDevji (sun), in Shri Chandradevji (moon), in water, in earth, in air, in sky and even in his conscience. The entire world appeared to be Godly to him. He visualized GOD everywhere and worshiped GOD only by the mental things. It is a very high position of devotion that we visualize GOD everywhere and we become capable of mental worship. It is a much higher state that a creature becomes capable to do the mental worship of GOD instead of worshipping Him with the worship material.
The person who achieves such a high state of devotion becomes blessed.
GIST FOR ALL RELIGIONS
- Instead of physical worship, the mental worship of GOD is a very high stage of worship.
