Educational Q&A
Divine instruction is presented as an act of grace, and its ethical aim is to direct the listener toward sincere, effortful worship of Śrī Kṛṣṇa—treating devotion as a meritorious, purifying practice.
Īśvara addresses ascetic listeners (tapodhanāḥ), stating that he has revealed a sacred account of the Lord’s greatness specifically to inspire them to worship the foremost Yadu, Śrī Kṛṣṇa, with deliberate effort.
