Naarada encourages Vyaasa to write Bhaagavatham

Veda Vyaasa had differentiated and written four Vedaas.He showed his dissatisfaction to Narada that he wanted to do still some more,but he was not sure as what to do.Then Narada replied him in no uncertain terms to what is needed. Vyaasaa! hey great soul!You have written so many epics,vedas ,puraanas and ithihaasaas. You served unaccountable service to the mankind.In Maahabharatha,you wrote Bhagavadgeetha also.There,you just mentioned his traits.You did not praise his greatness anywhere.If people praise his greatness,God would be happy.Even people who praise him will feel happy.Any writing,whi ch does not praise the greatness of god is incomplete.inadequate and uninteresting.Even great people do not enjoy and get involved in it.Where as ,in a book which explains Gods greatness is welcomed and enjoyed by all and sundry even if there be small mistakes.People read such books,enjoy it,make others hear it and relish it.Any act which fails to increase bhakthibhaavam in common man brings unhappiness only. It is not fruitful in reaching its final goal. Vyaasa!you are part and parcel of that great soul.You know the importance of vedas,bhakthibhaava and moksham.You are capable of masking people see god in his original form.You have the caliber to praise God precisely.Your sorrow and feeling of emptiness would leave you if start writing an epic which depicts the life history and related great stories of Vaasudeva,the god.If people read such a book,people would start to diminish theri craving for materialistic benefits and pay interest in increasing Bhakthi bhaavana. As long as man lives,he has to do something to keep himself and his people alivi and happy.But if we dedicate every thing we do and their fruits to God,it is in our best interests.If we do things for our benefit only,we would not achieve that happiness and contentment.Even if we feel,we are benefiting by such deeds,it is only temporary.In the end,they bring grief only.Except those deeds,which are done with Bhakthi bhaavam,all other acts are ending in sorrow and pain to the human being. Once ,we learn the beauty and contentment of Bhagavadarpanam,we strive that for that contentment in our later lives also.Doing the acts physically,like manthra,thanthra,Dhyaana and adhyayana ,do not bring salvation to the soul ultimately. So,Vyasa!please start writing about Gods deeds and greatness.
