Distractions in relationships

Study of the Srimad-Bhagavatam allows us to understand how to relate to each other as servants of Krishna. Else, we simply get distracted by envy, jealousy, pride, anger, etc.

It provides positive examples from all the varnas and all the asramas so that we learn to develop those qualities e.g. how to be a good son or daughter, mother or father, friend or partner and ultimately how to relate these relationships to Krishna.
