कन्नडभाषया श्लोकार्थः
This course is a pre-recorded video series consisting of the shloka-s of the second half (Uttaraardha) of the tenth skandha of Srimad Bhagavatam, explained in Kannada by Vid. M. Vijayalakshmi. The Dashama Skandha, revered as the Heart of the Bhagavata, in its latter half narrates the glorious episodes of Bhagavan Sri Krishna in Mathura and Dwaraka, his marriages, and the slaying of mighty asura-s. The teacher reveals the profound tattva-s and bhakti-rasa embedded in these narratives in simple Kannada, with authentic interpretations drawn from traditional Sanskrit commentaries like Shridhariya.

Srimad Bhagavatam is one of the 18 Mahapurana-s, and is considered by many to be the greatest Purana. Srimad Bhagavatam was composed by Veda Vyasa as per the advice of Narada. It is said that Vyasa maharshi initially organised the Veda-s into 4 branches and taught them to his disciples, which were then passed on through generations. After that, out of compassion for those to whom the Veda-s were not accessible, he composed the Mahabharata, which distills the entire Vedartha in simple terms. Yet, he was not completely satisfied. He attained contentment only after composing the Bhagavata, which represents the highest form of devotion to the Supreme being. Srimad Bhagavatam consists of 12 Skandha-s, and 332 adhyaya-s. Dashama skandha, describing the avatara and leela-s of Sri Krishna is the most popular portion.
This course deals with the Dashama skandha.
