Sri Narada Muni from practical experience of His life asserts it definitely that the prime solution of all problems of material work is to broadcast very widely the transcendental glories of the Supreme Lord. There are four classes of good men and there are four classes of bad men also. The four classes of good men acknowledge the authority of the Almighty God and therefore such goodmen when 1. they are in difficulty, 2. when they are in need money 3. when they are advanced in knowledge and 4. when they are inquisitive to know more and more about God, intuitively they take shelter of the Lord and as such Naradji advises Vyasdeva to broadcast the transcendental knowledge of God in terms of the vast Vedic knowledge which he had already attained.
#$p#So far the bad men are concerned they are also four in number. They are 1. Those who are simply addicted to the mode of progressive fruitive work and thus are subjected to the accompanying miseries. 2. Those who are simply addicted to vicious work for sense satisfaction and also suffering the consequence. 3. Those who are materially very much advanced in knowledge but have no sense to acknowledge the authority of the almighty Lord and thus suffering a lot. And 4. there is a class of men who are known as atheist and therefore purposely hate the very name of God although they are always in difficulty.
Sri Naradji advised Vyasdeva to describe the glories of the Lord just to do good to all the above mentioned eight classes of men both good and bad. Srimad Bhagwat is therefore not meant for any particular class of men or sect. It is for the sincere soul who wants actually his own welfare and peace of the mind.
#/div#
Thus end the #b#Bhaktivedanta Purports#/b# of the first canto-fifth chapter of Srimad Bhagwatam in the matter of Sri Narada's Instructions on Srimad Bhagwatam to Vyasdeva.
