Srimad-Bhagavatam: Canto 2 - Chapter 1 - Verse 25


Sanskrit:

अथाभिधेह्यङ्ग मनोऽनुकूलंप्रभाषसे भागवतप्रधान: ।यदाह वैयासकिरात्मविद्या-विशारदो नृपतिं साधु पृष्ट: ॥ २५ ॥

ITRANS:

athābhidhehy aṅga mano-’nukūlaṁprabhāṣase bhāgavata-pradhānaḥyad āha vaiyāsakir ātma-vidyā-viśārado nṛpatiṁ sādhu pṛṣṭaḥ

Translation:

O Sūta Gosvāmī, your words are pleasing to our minds. Please therefore explain this to us as it was spoken by the great devotee Śukadeva Gosvāmī, who is very expert in transcendental knowledge, and who spoke to Mahārāja Parīkṣit upon being asked.

Purport:

Knowledge explained by the previous ācārya like Śukadeva Gosvāmī and followed by the next like Sūta Gosvāmī is always powerful transcendental knowledge, and it is therefore penetrating and useful to all submissive students.
