create a good and auspicious situation. Therefore the preaching of Krsna
consciousness must be done very carefully by the members of the Krsna
consciousness movement, especially the sannydsis. This will create an
auspicious atmosphere.

TRANSLATION
Sri Sata Gosvami said: O brahmanas, when Pariksit Maharaja,
who was awaiting impending death, thus requested Sukadeva
Gosvami to speak, Sukadeva Gosvami, encouraged by the King’s
words, offered respect to the King and spoke with great pleasure
in the assembly of sages, who desired to hear him.
Thus end the Bhaktivedanta purports of the Eighth Canto, First
Chapter, of the Srimad-Bhagavatam, entitled “The Manus, Administra-
tors of the Universe.”
