The disposition of Maharaja Yudhisthira is just to serve...For Maharaja Yudhisthira, inquiring from Bhismadeva was not mechanical or just being polite. He engaged himself according to what he had heard from Bhisma. He applied the teachings that he heard...When there are proper brahmanas, proper ksatriyas and proper parents, there are so much protection and well-being for an individual in the society. There is very little of such opportunities in Kali-yuga. So, the shelter must be taken largely from Srimad Bhagavatam and those who are living the life of Bhagavatam. Those who take shelter of Bhagavatam, and those who live the life of Bhagavatam, along with the sankirtana of the holy name, find that protection. These shelters give real protection. One can feel really protected if these three shelters are taken - the book Bhagavatam, the person bhagavat and the holy name - then there is shelter. Those who are taking the position of caring for others, need to understand these principles from all angles of social, political, economical and spiritual upliftment.
