yah-which; tah-all those; devarsina-by the great sage Narada; tatra-there; varnitah-narrated; bhagavat-kathah-preachings pertaining to the activities of the Lord; mahyam-unto me; susrusave-very eager to hear; brahman-my dear brahmana; kartsnyena-fully; acastum arhasi-kindly explain.

TRANSLATION

My dear brahmana, how did Narada Muni glorify the Supreme Personality of Godhead, and what pastimes were described in that meeting? I am very eager to hear of them. Kindly explain fully about that glorification of the Lord.

PURPORT

Srimad-Bhagavatam is the record of bhagavat-katha, topics about the pastimes of the Lord. What Vidura was anxious to hear from Maitreya we can also hear five thousand years later, provided we are very eager.
