Swami Mukundananda
How should I listen to the Bhagavatam so that it builds my bhakti?
Listen to divine pastimes with a devotional heart
Drink the Bliss of the Bhagavatam not with the mouth but with your ears, and drown in the ocean of divine love for God. For that, bring up all your devotion, or you may only fall asleep.
When you hear the Bhagavatam, you have to bring up all your devotion for the Lord and hear these Divine Pastimes with that devotion.
