    Once you get the taste of Bhagavatam, then you will not like your novels or some internet blogs. Drink this rasa of Bhagavatam. Bhagavatam may look like stories but actually it has a very special rasa to it – a juice that you can drink through the ears. And that you can go on drinking. That has no limit. Ears can hold an unlimited amount of rasa. Go on drinking until you die or until you fall into ecstasy. Go on drinking.
