236 Srimad-Bhagavatam [Canto 5, Ch. 6

His different incarnations, and they are privileged to glorify the Lord by
following the directions of Vedic literature. After realizing the glories of
human life. such people should take up the mission to spread the impor-
tance of human life throughout the whole world. This is the mission of
Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu. The word adhipunyam indicates that there
are certainly many other pious men throughout the world, but the people
of Bharata-varsa are even more pious. Therefore they are fit to spread
Krsna Consciousness throughout the world for the benefit of all human
society. Srila Madhvacarya also recognizes the land of Bharata-varsa:
visesdd bhdrate punyam. Throughout the world, there is no question of
bhagavad-bhakti or devotional service, but the people of Bharata-varsa
can easily understand the devotional service of the Lord. Thus every in-
habitant of Bharata-varsa can perfect his life by discharging bhagavad-
bhakti and then preaching this cult throughout the world for the benefit
of everyone.
