The following scriptures we study are available in the stores given below. Please check with the stores over phone for the availability of the books.
This is a must have printed edition in your puja room and should be studied every day. This is a must have printed edition in your puja room. It is published by Bhagavan Nama Publications. This printed edition is beautiful and translation is immeasurable. Because they will be more people who want SRmad Bhagavatam to read.
So i started reading Srimad-Bhagavatam. After reading those books i realized the real problem of human being. The problem is, people are not reading or not understanding these books. This is only the way to get out of all troubles of Kali yuga. And on the other hand i also think that no one can stop this because the name itself indicates the yuga of quarrel. Can anyone help me getting the book? Please do a favor. Vaisnava literature can only be translated by a pure devotee of Krishna. This is a very rare thing.
Almost all commentators on the Vedic texts have their own opinions and ideas which they superimpose on top of their translations and commentary of the Vedic texts thus rendering them useless in the matter of transferring any real transcendental knowledge.
You will be amazed Prabhu as to how much better you will find Srimad-Bhagavatam the second time you read it. They are not like ordinary books. You can read them an unlimited number of times and every time you read them they will be new and fresh and every time you will find new realizations and new knowledge.
Also the logical progression after reading Srimad-Bhagavatam is to read Sri Caitanya-caritamrta. There you will find the same teachings of Srimad-Bhagavatam but presented in a very wonderful way. Sri Caitanya-caritamrta goes further in explaining the pastimes of Radha and Krishna than Srimad-Bhagavatam does. It is the post-graduate study of spiritual life. There is nothing wrong with that.
It is first edition from Fifth Canto on, and cantos are second edition. Not the first printing, they contain some corrections that were made by BBT editors working under the direction of Srila Prabhupada.
These are the exact same books that Srila Prabhupada personally read himself daily and gave most of his classes from and begged his disciples to distribute widely. So this Bhagavatam set is completely accepted by Srila Prabhupada. It is perfectly bona fide. Completely spiritual. Hare Krishna prabhu all glories to Srila Prabhupada Please accept my humble obeisances. I really appreciate the work you are doing prabhu but I have one concern. The Srimad Bhagavatam downloads seem to be the originals but not the ones you are advertising on Krishnastore.
Please explain this to me because I am having a hard time trying to understand it. And please forgive me prabhu if I have offended you or anyone with my concerns.
I just want to know the truth. After the first editions were printed Srila Prabhupada instructed the editors to make many corrections to the first printed books.
So there is editing between the first and later printings of the Bhagavatams. If you look carefully you will not find the meaning of the text is being changed.
So this editing went on under the authorization and direction of Srila Prabhupada. The Bhagavatam set that you purchased from KrishnaStore. So it is completely authorized by Srila Prabhupada and is identical to the Bhagavatam volumes that Srila Prabhupada gave most of his classes from. There is nothing so original as the set you have in existence at the moment. You are very fortunate to have it. They are now out of print.
We have a few sets left in Europe only. If it is good enough for Srila Prabhupada to read personally himself daily and give his classes from it should be good enough for you to read…. English is the main language for India now. It is available printed for sure in Marathi but you know when a book is translated into another language of course that is very good and very important for the people who only speak that language.
But really in the translation process something is lost. As far as I can see there is no problem with the files. Try to download them again and let me know if you are still having a problem. Can I order this set of books in India? Is PDF version is available to download in Tamil language?
Your service to the Krishna Consciousness movement is inestimable. I have left, and I feel inspired for that decision. I would loose my life and soul if I were to compromise on principles which are keeping me cognizant of the need to protect the creeper of devotional service, and not allow it to get mixed up in karma, jnana or yoga.
But somehow we have to remain in Krishna consciousness. So that is quite a challenge. Really this is best done in the association of other devotees, it is very hard to be a devotee surrounded by non-devotees. But somehow that is the position we seem to be in at the moment so we have to push on and try to become Krishna conscious and try to serve Srila Prabhupada under these difficult circumstances.
The solution is chanting Hare Krishna ultimately. So we have to actually get a taste for chanting Hare Krishna and have to actually do it constantly. It is only the sankirtan, the chanting of the Hare Krishna mantra that can counteract the bad effects of Kali-yuga.
So we have to chant Hare Krishna or we will not be even able to counteract the evils of Kali in our own lives, what to speak of saving the world, which, at some point in time, someone has to do, again..
Hare Krishna.. I have hard copies though. Can you please help. Please let me know. I am a swaminarayan devotee of BAPS. In the shikshapatri manual for code of conduct and bhakti it says that a devotee should read the tenth canto of the srimad bhagavatam every year. But it is not complete here. But I need the tenth canto. What should I do. Firstly your instruction from Swami Narayana is wrong. This sort of stress on reading specifically the Tenth Canto of the Srimad-Bhagavatam, giving special stress to reading the Tenth Canto over the other Cantos is completely wrong, completely bogus.
So have to read all of the Bhagavatam, starting from the First Canto, in the order that it has been presented. Not that you put special stress on reading the Tenth Canto. You have to read and assimilate all the other cantos first before it is possible for you to appreciate and understand the Tenth Canto. That is a summary study of the Tenth Canto. Can anyone tell me the links of pdf files of Canto 11 and 12 without the poisonous commentary. There is no use in reading Bhagavatam without commentary by a pure devotee of Krishna.
Srila Prabhupada has given us enough to keep us constantly engaged in hearing about Krishna for a very long time. Putting Hriydananda godas on the same platform as Srila Prabhupada. I really can not imagine that there are many idiots out there any more who can accept such insanity. I heard Prabhupada say today that you can fool all of the people for some time and you can fool some of the people for all of the time but you can not fool all of the people for all of the time.
So the bottom line is forget reading anything that is not written by Srila Prabhupada. Srila Prabhupada is a pure devotee of Krishna and he has given us absolutely everything we need to become completely Krishna conscious, to become pure devotees, and to go back home back to Godhead and to take the whole universe with us. We simply have to surrender to Srila Prabhupada and take advantage of his association in the form of his transcendental books, his lectures, his conversations, his press conferences, his morning walks, his letters and all the other transcendental nectar he has left for us to raise us up to the platform of pure devotional service.
This krishna consciousness movement is the only movement which can guide a person for the path of purity and selfish less service. Not only towards god and his devotees but also to the whole world and people living around here. Thank you so much prabhu for this wonderful arrangement of the original works of the master All glories unto Prabhupada, all glories to Sri Krishna, all glories to Madhudvisa dasa!
Can you please tell me what are the most serious changes the BBT has made, other than grammatical or spelling corrections?
What are the most drastic changes been made, by which the entire original meaning got lost? If you could give me some examples, and preferably an overview or a link to where I can find this information that would be very helpful. Thank you in advance,. Please read all the articles there. Of course they have started slowly. Still they have made thousands and thousands of significant changes that really alter the meaning of what Prabhupada says.
Sometimes very dramatically changing the meaning, sometimes completely reversing what Prabhupada said…. Thanks for your fast reply, prabhu. I will give it a serious look and may contact you for further clarification, if needed.
Meanwhile I have sent you a message on an other article. Hare Krishna Madhudvisa dasa ji, One more doubt. Bhaktivedantaswami correct? Are they not perfectly divine as they are expected to be? And what are Ritvik and other foundations.? Please kindly forgive my ignorance and sorry if I had spoken anything wrong. Do kindly reply me and make me understand. Thanking you, Hare Krishna, Balaji. They are changing his books to try and reflect the changes they have made to the eternal and unchangeable philosophy of Krishna consciousness.
You can not reject and change the instructions of your spiritual master without becoming completely demoniac. This is demoniac. This is the tendency in history. When the empowered acarya leaves his preaching organization becomes overtaken by demons in the dress of devotees. There is not much that can be done to stop this. The demons are very keen to take over the position of guru and if there is no powerful acarya to keep them in check then it is very hard to stop demons from taking the position of guru and exploiting the innocent disciples.
So we have seen this happening in ISKCON now for many years and it has been the cause of spiritual ruination for so many unfortunate devotees. They can not help you to become Krishna conscious but they are very qualified to hinder your natural progress in spiritual life. Srila Prabhupada is living in his books and other recorded vani and you can personally associate with him by reading his books and hearing his recorded classes.
This is direct and personal association with a pure devotee of Krishna and this sadhu-sanga with Srila Prabhupada has the power to elevate you to the platform of pure devotional service.
Hare Krishna Madhudvisa dasa ji, I understand and accept thoughts.. But as a devotee of Sri Krishna, shudnt we try to do something for this. Because I hav seen many of my friends goin there. Of course they went only for Darshan of Sri Krishna. But what about the other unfortunate souls who as you say will be misguided under the name of Krishna consciousness.
Thanking you,, Hare Krishna, Balaji. What we should do is become pure devotees of Krishna ourselves by surrendering to Srila Prabhupada and following all the instructions he gives us while we read his books. Then Srila Prabhupada and Krishna will give us the intelligence so we will know exactly what we should do…. Hare Krishna Madhudvisa dasa ji, I hav downloaded the 10th canto volume I have started readin now only.
I feel if someone teaches it for me I can understand and grasp the details in more detail and can get benefitted.
What can I do? He will teach you. To teach you…. The subject matter develops through the various cantos, you will not get the benefit of the tenth canto unless you have already properly studied all the other cantos. Hare Krishna Madhudvisa dasa ji.. Thank you so much for your reply.
I hav read the introduction, life history of Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu and the first chapter Questions of the Sages. With your help and guidance I shall try to read all the cantos of Srimad Bhaghavatham.
After reading the book I had a feel of interest to learn more about Sri Narayana. Thank you, Hare Krishna Balaji. I plan to start e-learning course on-line for free of charge for the benefit of devotees and others in general.
In other words, can you grant me the permission? Thanks to your idea of publishing Srimad Bhaghavatham in pdf form for the benefit of the world. Kindly do reply. I can not see any reason from our side why you should have any problem downloading SB tenth canto Volume 2.
Thanks a lot for publishing Shri Bhagvattam. This is such a great service. Due to your continous efforts many people are getting direct benefit. Your efforts are bring dharma to everybody. I am currently studying Srimad Bhagavatam one chapter a day. I have read somewhere online that parayan of Srimad Bhagavatam lazily continuing till a year is Tamasik.
But I am not studying it lazily. I am studying with immense faith of the Lord. Should I be worried about the Tamasik nature of my study. Should the parayan be completed within a week or a month?
Thanks so much for the files. Thanks so much and very much appreciated. Here is the final comparison using the proper rendering methods for a Digital Remaster, and the cleaned up files you have available for download. I just want to add that my previous message was about some files that were posted before these ones available now, which had too much loss of quality compared to the original high resolution files.
I just now downloaded the most recent available PDFs you have made available here and they are actually rendered well and of good quality. Also 10th Canto you posted has great quality. Yes, we have done a lot of work to improve the quality of the Srimad-Bhagavatam and Caitanya-caritamrta PDF files to be the best possible quality.
Dear Prabhu thank you for uploading the books of srimad bhagavatam it is extremely beautiful to see it and also to read. There are only 10 cantos and 13 chapters but in vedabase there are extra two chapters should i read them also or just upto Thank you for your valuable time.
The important thing about a spiritual book is the author. Only a pure devotee of Krishna can understand Krishna and therefore only a pure devotee of Krishna can describe Krishna. We know that Srila Prabhupada is a pure devotee of Krishna and we have seen by practical example that his books have the potency to awaken the dormant Krishna consciousness that is within us all. Srila Prabhupada stressed just before he left his body that he did not feel any of his disciples were qualified to continue the translation of Srimad-Bhagavatam.
They imitated Prabhupada but they were not pure devotees of Krishna like Prabhupada, they did not understand Krishna so they had no power to explain Krishna. Milk touched by the lips of a serpent has poisonous effects. So reading the Bhagavatam which is not translated by Srila Prabhupada [after Canto 10, Chapter 13] will have poisonous effects on you, even though it appears to be the Bhagavatam… The poison is very subtle but it is also very deadly. Then you can read the Bhagagavatam again. I beg you to reply to my comments.
Please tell me what I as a beginner in devotion should read. I really trust your commitment to Srila Prabhupada.
Your servant, Santosh. Why did Srila Prabhupada spend so much time and effort writing all of these books? I have one query:-Can you please tell me if it is okay to take print out of these pages instead of ordering the hard copy of Bhagavatam? I beg ou to reply. I also wrote a comment yesterday. But it it not visible in your website now. What happened to it? That is what it is for. Please do it. Print out the pages and read them…. If you read them aloud also, including chanting the Sanskrit verses, it has more potency than just reading it in your mind.
Reading in your mind is also good, but if you read it aloud then you are chanting it and hearing it and Krishna consciousness is actually realized through chanting and hearing much more than thinking in the mind. Thinking in the mind is of course smaranam, remembering, one of the nine processes of devotional service, so I am not in any way minimizing this, but hearing and chanting is better and that includes remembering also.
So if you read aloud you are performing simultaneously hearing, chanting and remembering, which is much better than just remembering…. Prabhu,can you please tell me if Srimad Bhagavad Gita is available in pdf format? And, will it be okay to take a print out of the pages and read them, instead of purshasing the books? I will be extremely grateful if you can provide me with a kind reply.
There is no Canto 13, only Srila Prabhupada only translated up to 10th Canto Chapter 13 so that is all that is available in English in an authorized form. Please read and study the 12, pages Prabhupada has already given us in Cantos Please let me know if there is any auspicious time or muhurta to start reading Srimad Bhagavatam.
Srila Prabhupada only translated up to Tenth Canto Chapter After that there is no bona-fide translation of the Srimad-Bhagavatam in English.
I cannot think of reading incomplete Bhagavatam. Is it how its followed by everybody, Or, any alternate procedure followed? Kindly let me know. It is not incomplete. It will take you a long time to read this, then there is about 8, pages of Sri-Caitanya Caritamrta, pages of Bhagavad-gita, and so many other things.
Thank you encouraging me to carry on with my will of reading Srimad Bhagavatm. I am currently in my first reading on Sri Bhagavad Gita and it has utterly influenced me.
I have totally changed my way of life and consciousness. Start reading it now. I am very grateful for these downloads, but I wonder if the 10th canto will be available for download in future? Thanks, thank you very much. Hari Bol!! It is there now, Can you look up something for me? A few lines into the Purport. It says:. Therein lies the problem. This is not an error and the current Bhagavatams still are the original pre Bhagavatams.
At least as far as I know so far the BBT have not changed them although they want to change the Bhagavatam and may have done that in their most recent printing, I do not know. These four orders of life: brahmacary, grhastha, varnaprasatha and sannyasa are social orders.
It is student life, married life, retired life and renounced life. So these are social orders. Students are one social order, married people are another social order, retired people are another social order and the renounced order is another social order. These orders are part of the Vanrasrama system which is about organizing the society in such a way that it is conducive for spiritual advancement.
So the whole Varnasrama system is a social order which has as its aim facilitating the spiritual upliftment of all the people…. Hare Krishna Community. I have reduced the size of Canto 1 and 2. The size of Canto 2 is now 62MB by using acrobat Cleartype, dpi. Text is searchable. Eg Original version: Lord Brahma said: At the time when the unlimitedly powerful Lord assumed the form of a boar as a pastime, just to lift up the earthly planet, which was drowned in the great ocean of the universe called the Garbhodaka, the first demon Hiranyaksa appeared, and the Lord pierced him with His tusk.
Lord Brahma said: When the unlimitedly powerful Lord assumed the form of a boar as a pastime, just to lift the planet earth, which was drowned in the great ocean of the universe called the Garbhodaka, the first demon Hiranyaksa appeared, and the Lord pierced him with His tusk.
This is not a change. There is absolutely no change to the meaning of the text. Prabhupada wrote a number of letters to the editors requesting corrections be made to the first edition Bhagavatams so you can not expect that all the printings will be absolutely identical to the first editions. So please read the books. I extracted images from last file, they were MB. So if you have created smaller. The text is not searchable as I dont have the proper software for it. However, it is adequate for viewing on computer screen.
The big PDF files are good as reference, but it might be difficult to open them at older or slower computers. I request that the images may be optimized in size without losing quality and put individually so that we can see image of any page without downloading the whole file. Scanning or photographing is the best way to keep the books in computer format because it is free from missing texts and spelling mistakes.
Here are some instances of missing texts: 1. Srimad Bhagvatam SB 5. In at NY airport, just after Rathayatra, devotees inquired from Srila Prabhupada about the nature of the confusing maps in the just released 5th canto.
After these many years I have been given the means to define the original nature of these maps scientifically. But it requires that the information be viewed under a very different set of circumstances where a complete washout of the western education that all western devotees were subject to and see the information through that lens. The current intellectual house of mirrors does not allow modern man to conceptualize outside certain restrictive definitions ie that what is not happening in the astronomical sky today of planets and their relationships — did not happen in ancient times.
The sky has not changed much in the last years. What is in the FIfth Canto is an accurate description of the universe we live in. But as you say we have all been brainwashed by the current world view and most people, devotees included, can not accept that the actual universe is so different from what they have been told it is like since birth….
But actually the current scientific climate is such that if you could actually explain it in a way that they could understand it at least a small percentage of scientists would be open to it and many would be curious to investigate it.
The problem is we do not understand the universe as it is described in the Fifth Canto and we can not explain it to the scientists. Not that the scientists refuse to accept it. Our model has to explain everything that we observe and it has to explain it better than their model. But we do not have that model. So how can we expect any scientist to take us seriously? The actual universe according to the Bhagavatam is dramatically different from what we have come to believe it to be according to the scientists and astronomers.
For example there is only one sun in the whole universe and all the things we call stars are actually just like the moon. The earth is in the center of the universe and everything is rotating, not around the earth, but around an axis which goes from the polestar out to the mountain range half-way out the universe.
And everything is moving gradually because the whole thing is moving around the mountain range gradually to make a full circuit in days…. So it is a very nice system that actually does perfectly explain everything we see. On vedabase.
Why is that? I searched on Wikipedia it said Srimad Bhagavatam has 12 cantos. Please clear this doubt. Did you forgot to upload the last two cantos or there were originally only 10 cantos translated and explained by Swami Prabhupada ji? They are cheating Prabhu. After Canto 10 Chapter 13 there is no Prabhupada Bhagavatam. And ISKCON are such rascals that they are not even prepared to tell the readers who it was that made these translations and purports.
But if someone who is not a pure devotee of Krishna, someone who still has material desires to fulfill, attempts to write Vaisnava literature it will fail.
His books will not have any potency to deliver the transcendental knowledge to anyone, rather, even though they may seem very bona fide and very spiritual and even the philosophy in them may be correct, but because the heart of the author is not clean if you read his books the result will be that your heart will become contaminated, not purified….
Also, is this original edition available for sale too? Therefore, could you kindly publish the original versions of all the books by Srila Prabhupada as you have done with this original edition of Srimad Bhagavatam?
Many of the books printed by the BBT are still original. Up to recently the Srimad-Bhagavatams were all original. But Bhagavad-gita and Krsna Book have been changed a lot and Caitanya-caritamrta is also changed but less.
Prabhupada wrote some canto 1st of SB in India , they were i think printed by Gita Press , is it true? He collected the money for the printing himself by selling his Back to Godhead magazine and getting some donations from various important persons and businessmen. I believe the Gita Press gave Srila Prabhupada some donations towards his great mission of printing the Srimad-Bhagavatam but they did not print it.
Prabhupada printed it himself in Delhi. It is not that Prabhupada wrote the First Canto of the Bhagavatam twice. He printed the First Canto in India so he would have something substantial to take with him when he went to the Western countries to preach. So when Prabhupada went to the USA on the Jaladutta he took many cases of his Srimad-Bhagavatam with him and later on shipped more to the US when he was more established there. So Prabhupada did not write it twice. He did, however, write the Bhagavad-gita As It Is twice.
That is because the original manuscript he wrote in India was stolen. As far as Prabhupada never criticizing the Gaudiya Matha, that is a lie. Prabhupada very loudly and openly criticized his godbrothers for going against the orders of Srila Bhaktsiddhanta and even has written very, very strong criticize of the Gaudiya Matha in the purports of his Caitanya-caritamrta.
So not only did Prabhupada strongly criticize his godbrothers in India even before coming to the West, he criticized them many times in letters to and conversations with his disciples, and he even published that criticize in his books. So we have to criticize if devotees are presenting themselves as following Srila Prabhupada but are not.
Otherwise innocent people will be fooled by them. Of course Prabhupada did not concentrate on criticizing his godbrothers. He did not do it all the time. He had much more important things to talk about. But still he did very strongly and openly criticize them on many, many occasions.
So honestly both sides are useless. So they are both lying, both useless. But that Krishna. I want to see one iskcon dying to serve Prabhupada and his mission , where everyone is out of politics hatred and envy.
I am a aspiring to be a follower of Srila Prabhupada, that is all. I am not a supporter of anyone else. He can not give something that he does not have himself. So if he is not himself a pure unalloyed devotee of Krishna he can not help anyone else become a pure unalloyed devotee of Krishna.
And this is also a lie. Prabhupada wants his disciples to become qualified bona fide diksa gurus. But of course the qualification is required. That qualification is not very difficult, in theory, but in practice it is very rare to find someone who is actually prepared to surrender to Srila Prabhupada and Krishna. So in this way they are lying also. That is all I am saying and I am suggesting that if you really want to understand what Srila Prabhupada is teaching us on the guru issue and on every other issue is that you please read his books.
Just hear directly from Srila Prabhupada…. Then we will not go wrong. Tags: Book Distribution , Srimad-Bhagavatam. I started seriously reading Srila Prabhupada's books in Australia and by Srila Prabhupada had convinced me "Krishna is the Supreme Personality of Godhead" and "we should surrender to Krishna. That's my life and full-time occupation now really. I like it more than anything I've ever experienced before.
Srila Prabhupada's books are so amazing Even after reading them all many times they're still fresh and new. They are truly transcendental! That's it really. Now I'm just hankering to once again see the world chant Hare Krishna, dance and feast and float away in the ecstasy of Lord Caitanya's Sankirtana movement as it did in Srila Prabhupada's physical presence.
Let the whole world drown in the ecstatic flood of love of Krishna! We Respect Your Privacy! Srimad-Bhagavatam 2. Leave a Reply Cancel reply Your email address will not be published. Leave this field empty. Vishnu says:. September 5, at am.
