Because it's always important to know the theme.

Because a theme is that one idea in a particular body of work, a book, a paragraph, whatever, a talk, the material world.

It's the one idea, the one concept, which everything is connected to, even if... seemingly unrelated.

For example, if I ask you what the theme of the material world is that connects everything here, nothing is separated from this one, that the material world is for liberation.

It's for to purify your consciousness.

And there's two ways of doing it.

It's suffering and enjoyment.

suffering to frustrate you with enjoyment and enjoyment to frustrate you with enjoyment.

And then within that, anything else, regulated activities to satisfy and renounce your enjoyment at the same time.

Sex life.

It's enjoyed and restricted at the same time.

Any type of eating, enjoyed and restricted, with the purpose of giving up the material desire.

So it has a theme, and the Bhagavatam has a theme, ete camsa kalapum sa krishnas tu bhagavan svayam, that Krishna is the svayam bhagavan, the original personality of Godhead.

And from that, from calculation of time to the atom, to the gopis, it's all connected.

The theme of the Brihadbhagavatamrita, I picked this out, what Sanatana Goswami's objective is, paramadarsantam, Parma, the stage, the topmost stage, the end of the topmost stage, which is Anarpita Charim Charat Kurunaya Bhatir Na Kalo Samarpiatum Unatojvala Rasa Bhakti, this brilliant bhakti that comes within Chaitanya Mahaprabhu's line.

And that's the theme of the book.

And it's done in two basic ways.

It's done through the journey of Narada, Bhagavad Kripa Sar, to find the devotee who has the topmost recipient of Krishna's mercy.

And then the story of Gopakumar, Goloka Mahatyam, his journey to find the topmost place where those people reside.

So this is the theme.

And now we're in the second book.

And because the foundation of the book, we can go back because that's also interesting.

We haven't done that in a while.

Sanatana Goswami's prayers, how am I going to explain this, that even Krishna expresses in the Bhagavatam, the pariyam, he can't repay it, it's so great, this particular love that Chaitanya Mahaprabhu is giving to the world.

So he does it by prayer.
