The 6 questions of Saunakadi Rsis, the speciality of Sukadeva Gosvami, the end of the Mahabharata War: – Third sloka of the Bhagavatam (the ripen fruit of the desire tree of the Vedas); – Why Sukadeva Gosvami made the Bhagavatam even sweeter (story of him as the dear parrot of Srimati Radhika); – The viewpoint of sastra about ladies (even Laksmi-devi spoke the Bhagavatam); – Six questions made by the rsis headed by Saunaka Rsi to Suta Gosvamipada; – How to form a question: importance of paying obeisances (example of Ravana lifting Kailash and of Arjuna doing pranam with his arrows before the Kurukshetra war); – Bhakti should be incessant (sa vai pumsam paro dharmo sloka); – Mayavadis worship the Deity but see the Deity as material; – Krsna tells Arjuna before the war that he shouldn`t think that his victory is certain; – Ashvatthama becomes the commander-in-chief of the Kaurava army at the last moment of the war and beheads the sons of Draupadi; Arjuna and Bhima come to punish him; why Pariksit is called Visnurat.
