Srimad Bhagavatam, Audiobook Download

By

By His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada. Narrated by Amal Bhakta Dasa.

About

Srimad-Bhagavatam is an epic philosophical and literary classic and holds a prominent position in India's voluminous written wisdom. It was written in Sanskrit by Srila Krishna Dvaipayana Vyasadeva about 5,000 years ago. After writing it, he taught it to his son Sukadeva Goswami, who later spoke it to Maharaja Pariksit in an assembly of sages on the bank of the sacred Ganges River.

This 2-disk set contains over 90 hours of narration by Srila Prabhupada's disciple Amal Bhakta Dasa, who uses many voice characterizations to portray the book's numerous characters. This makes the spiritual accounts very compelling, enjoyable, and easy to listen to - a true meditation. The Indian background music and sound effects, such as birds, elephants, chariots, and thunderstorms, help to fully absorb the mind in the narration and produce a transcendental experience.

This narration contains the translations from Srila Prabhupada's Srimad-Bhagavatam. The Sanskrit and purports are not included.
