Shloka : 98

श्रीमद्भागवतस्यैषु स्कन्धौ दशमपञ्चमौ ।

सर्वाधिकतया ज्ञेयौ कृष्णमाहात्म्यबुद्धये ॥ 98 ॥

અને વળી એ આઠ સચ્છાસ્ત્રને વિષે જે શ્રીમદ્ભાગવત પુરાણ, તેના દશમ ને પંચમ નામે જે બે સ્કંધ, તે જે તે શ્રીકૃષ્ણભગવાનના માહાત્મ્ય જાણવાને અર્થે સર્વથી અધિકપણે જાણવા. ॥ 98 ॥

And also among all those eight scriptures, the fifth and the tenth part of Shrimad Bhagwat Purana should be considered to be more important to know the glory of Shri Krishna Bhagwan. || 98 ||

Commentary

Shriji Maharaj has mentioned to consider the fifth and the tenth part of Shrimad Bhagwat to be more important to know the glory of Shri Krishna Bhagwan. Also, in Shikshapatri, Shloka 117, it is mentioned to listen to the tenth part of Shrimad Bhagwat regularly with due respect; or should listen to that once in a year, and the scholars should read it regularly or once in a year. Shriji Maharaj has mentioned this as a general rule in these two Shlokas i.e. He has mentioned this to reconcile the followers of other incarnations. But the main principle of Shriji Maharaj has been mentioned in Shikshapatri Shloka 208 and 209, which is 'My devotees should study this Shikshapatri every day and the devotees, who cannot read, should listen to this Shikshapatri with due respect and if there is no one available to read the Shikshapatri then the Shikshapatri should be worshipped everyday. And considering My words in the form of Shikshapatri, as My divine form, this Shikshapatri should be followed with full faith.'

This main principle has been mentioned by Shriji Maharaj for His absolute devotees to make them aware of His divinity and glory.
