PURPORT

By reading and hearing the narrations of the life and character of Prthu Maharaja, one naturally becomes a devotee, and as soon as one becomes a devotee, his material desires automatically become fulfilled. Therefore it is recommended in Srimad-Bhagavatam: akamah sarva-kamo va moksa-kama udara-dhih/ tivrena bhakti-yogena yajeta purusam param (Bhag. 2.3.10). It is recommended that if a person wants to return home, back to Godhead, or wants to become a pure devotee (akama), or wants some material prosperity (sakama or sarva-kama), or wants to merge into the existence of the Supreme Brahman effulgence (moksa-kama), he is recommended to take to the path of devotional service and hear and chant of Lord Visnu or of His devotee. This is the sum and substance of all Vedic literatures. Vedais ca sarvair aham eva vedyo (Bg. 15.15). The purpose of Vedic knowledge is to understand Krsna and His devotees. Whenever we speak of Krsna, we refer to His devotees also, for He is not alone. He is never nirvisesa or sunya, without variety or zero. Krsna is full of variety, and as soon as Krsna is present, there cannot be any question of void.
