TRANSLATION

When the respective warriors of both the camps namely the Kouravas and the Pandavas were killed in the battlefield of Kurukshetra and the bygone warriors obtained destinations deserved by them, and when the son of Dhritarastra fell down broken by the spinal-cord being beaten by the club of Bhimasena and was lamenting.


PURPORT

Transcendental topics on the activities of Lord Sri Krishna in the Srimad Bhagwatam begin from the end of the battlefield of Kurukhshetra where the Lord Himself spoke about Himself in the narration of the Bhagwat Geeta. Therefore, both the Bhagwat Geeta and Srimad Bhagwatam are transcendental topics of Lord Krishna. The Gita is Krishna Katha or topics of Krishna because it is spoken by the Lord and the Bhagwatam is also Krishna Katha because it is spoken about the Lord. Lord Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu wanted that everyone should be informed of both the Krishna Kathas by His order. Lord Krishna Chaitanya is Krishna Himself in the garb of a devotee of Krishna and therefore the versions of both Lord Krishna and Sri Krishna Chaitanya Mahaprabhu are identical. Lord Chaitanya desired it that all who are born in India may seriously understand such Krishna Kathas and then after full realisation they may preach the transcendental message to everyone in all parts of the world. That will bring about the desired peace and prosperity of the stricken world.
