The study of \u015ar\u012bmad-Bh\u0101gavatam is always glorious, and one who has experienced pleasure from hearing, chanting, and reading this transcendental literature will never be attracted by any mundane book.\u201d (\u015ar\u012bmad-Bh\u0101gavatam 12.13.15)
\nToward His Smiling Face is the last in the Overview of Srimad-Bhagavatam series before we arrive at Canto 10. Cantos 7-9 continue the journey toward “the smiling face of Kr\u015f\u0146a,” revealed in Sukadeva Gosv\u00e4mi’s pure-hearted account of Kr\u015f\u0146a as the fullest expression of the Supreme Personality of Godhead.
