TRANSLATION

We can see in the scripture Srimad-Bhagavatam the conduct of its author, Sri Vyasadeva. After speaking the narration, he repeats it again and again.

PURPORT

At the end of Srimad-Bhagavatam, in the Twelfth Canto, the Twelfth Chapter has fifty-two verses in which Sri Krsna-dvaipayana Vedavyasa recapitulates Srimad-Bhagavatam's entire subject matter. Sri Krsnadasa Kaviraja Gosvami wants to follow in the footsteps of Sri Vyasadeva by recapitulating the seventeen chapters of Sri Caitanya-caritamrta's Adi-lila.
