Lectures and Commentaries on Srimad Bhagavatam Canto 7, made in Vrindavan (India)
In the Seventh Canto of Śrīmad Bhāgavatam, there is a very interesting dialogue recited by Śrī Śukadeva Gosvāmī about the liberation of Śiśupāla who was killed by Kṛṣṇa during Yudhiṣṭhira Mahārāja’s Rājasūya-yajña. Śiśupāla was Kṛṣṇa’s cousin, but hated Kṛṣṇa since his very birth. At the first sight of Kṛṣṇa, he would start insulting Him, but Kṛṣṇa always remained tolerant, not showing any sign of disturbance. Kṛṣṇa had promised Śiśupāla’s mother, his maternal Aunt, “I will tolerate one hundred abuses from your son, but the day he crosses this limit, I will take action.”
Krishna prema is like blazing fire. It burns all one’s material attachments. Therefore, materialists are very scared of it. But this fire is most blissful. Only those who have trust (sraddha) dare to jump into it. They never want to come out of it and out of compassion invite others to join them.
