Ada Bhansali’s Reviews > The Bhagavata Purana > Status Update

Very readable, despite the insane length. It’ll be on my reading shelf for ages. Also realised after 36 years the most mundane difference between the puranas (which is resolutely stayed away from) and the Gita. So much to read, it’s like holding a toothbrush to clean a T rex.

Very readable, but so long it’ll be on my current shelf for months. Mere names from childhood come to life- eg, Jarasandha, have forgotten what all that was!! also finally understood the most simple differences between the Gita and the Puranas. Silly girl me. After the Devi Purana it doesn’t excite at this stage as that did but definitely read worthy.
