harer adbhuta-karmaṇaḥ
ya idaṁ deva-devasya
harer adbhuta-karmaṇaḥ
avatārānucaritaṁ
śṛṇvan yāti parāṁ gatim
If one hears about the uncommon activities of the Lord in this incarnation, he attains Vaikuṇṭha.
He who hears this story goes to the supreme destination.
|| 8.23.31 ||
kriyamāṇe karmaṇīdaṁ
daive pitrye 'tha mānuṣe
yatra yatrānukīrtyeta
tat teṣāṁ sukṛtaṁ viduḥ
The wise know that the all rites for devatās, Pitṛs, or humans become fully executed when this story is recited.
Thus ends the commentary on the Twenty-third Chapter of the Eighth Canto of the Bhāgavatam for the pleasure of the devotees, in accordance with the previous ācāryas.
Chapter Twenty-four
Appearance of Matsya
|| 8.24.1 ||
śrī-rājovāca
bhagavañ chrotum icchāmi
harer adbhuta-karmaṇaḥ
avatāra-kathām ādyāṁ
māyā-matsya-viḍambanam
Mahārāja Parīkṣit said: O great sage! I wish to hear the story in which the Lord who performs astonishing activities imitates a material fish.
The Twenty-fourth Chapter describes how Matsya, teacher of knowledge, frolicked in the great ocean, was praised by Satyavrata and then spoke to him. Remembering the Lord as Matsya after hearing how Vāmana expanded himself above the sky, Parīkṣit asks about this form. Just as the Lord took the form of a beggar which is condemned for its activities, the Lord took the form of a fish, criticized among animal species. Since all things related to Matsya will be told, the story of Satyavrata will also be told in relation to this. The Lord imitates a material fish. That means that he is a non-material fish.
|| 8.24.2-3 ||
yad-artham adadhād rūpaṁ
