In turn, Śrīla Vyāsadeva communicated the message of the Bhāgavatam to his son, Śukadeva Gosvāmī, who spoke it to King Parīkṣit. Sūta Gosvāmī heard the Bhāgavatam, and later Sūta explained the same knowledge to the sages at Naimiṣāraṇya. This is the system for receiving transcendental knowledge.*

The subtle body of mind, intelligence, and false ego are represented by the red dot on the figure’s forehead. The material elements of earth, water, fire, air, and ether are what the figure’s body is made of.*

Although everyone laughed at her impossible determination, news of her attempt spread, and at last Garuḍa, eagle carrier of Lord Viṣṇu, heard and became compassionate toward his small sister. Garuḍa was pleased by her determination and promised to help. Thus Garuḍa asked the ocean to return the sparrows eggs lest he himself take up the sparrow’s work of emptying the ocean.
