294 Srimad-Bhagavatam [Canto 7, Ch. 5
Prahlada Maharaja, therefore, taking advantage of the innocence of his
class friends, began teaching them about the importance of spiritual life
and the insignificance of materialistic life. Although the teachers Sanda
and Amarka were instructing all the boys in the materialistic life of
religion, economic development and sense gratification, the boys were
not much polluted. Therefore, with great attention they wanted to hear
from Prahlada Maharaja about Krsna consciousness. In our Krsna con-
sciousness movement, the guru-kula plays an extremely important part
in our activities because right from childhood the boys at the guru-kula
are instructed about Krsna consciousness. Thus they become steady
within the cores of their hearts, and there is very little possibility that
they will be conquered by the modes of material nature when they are
older.

Thus end the Bhaktivedanta purports of the Seventh Canto, Fifth
Chapter, of the Srimad-Bhagavatam, entitled “Prahlada Maharaja, the
Saintly Son of Hiranyakasipu.”
