About the Srimad-Bhagavatam: From the 1st to the 9th Canto, the text discusses sambandha-jñana; the 10th Canto presents prayojana; the 11th and 12th Canto discuss abhidheya.
Our goal (prayojana) is not to achieve liberation or salvation, but rather krsna-prema, krsna-sambandha, krsna-prayojana.
We must first understand material love before we can discuss transcendental love.
Srila Gurudeva tells a story about the path of love to explain material love.
The love of the material world is not fixed; it moves from one place to another. In this material world, everything is temporary.
Prema and material love are similar from above, but their activities are completely opposite.
The punishment given to us by those we love is sweeter than the glorifications of the Vedas.
Parakiya-rasa is superior to svakiya-rasa.
Where there is pride, pure love cannot manifest.
About the feeling of separation that Krsna feels from the Vrajavasis when He goes to Mathura.
Uddhava goes to Vrndavana to pacify the Vrajavasis when Krsna is in Mathura.
The definition of love is that, even with reason for prema to be destroyed, it is not destroyed and, instead, increases more and more.
