Authoritative Guidance Removes Doubts

“Vidura said: O powerful sage, my lord, all my doubts about the Supreme Personality of Godhead and the living entities have now been removed by your convincing words. My mind is now perfectly entering into them.”

Śrīla Prabhupāda · Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam 3.7.15, translation

What the purport teaches

  • The science of Kṛṣṇa and the living entities is subtle. Even Vidura needed to consult a sage like Maitreya.
  • The Lord is eternally the predominator, and living entities are eternally predominated. Real knowledge restores awareness of this relationship.
  • Devotional service revives this lost consciousness. Clear understanding received from authorities removes doubts and steadies the disturbed mind.
