yās tā devarṣiṇā tatra
varṇitā bhagavat-kathāḥ
mahyaṁ śuśrūṣave brahman
kārtsnyenācaṣṭum arhasi
yāḥ — which; tāḥ — all those; devarṣiṇā — by the great sage Nārada; tatra — there; varṇitāḥ — narrated; bhagavat-kathāḥ — preachings pertaining to the activities of the Lord; mahyam — unto me; śuśrūṣave — very eager to hear; brahman — my dear brāhmaṇa; kārtsnyena — fully; ācaṣṭum arhasi — kindly explain.
My dear brāhmaṇa, how did Nārada 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.
Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam is the record of bhagavat-kathā, 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.
