Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam 9.24.62
"Simply by receiving the glories of the Lord through purified transcendental ears, the devotees of the Lord are immediately freed from strong material desires and engagement in fruitive activities." https://vedy.online/en/sb9/24/62
Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam 10.1.4
"Glorification of the Supreme Personality of Godhead is performed in the paramparā system, that is, it is conveyed from the spiritual master to disciple. Such glorification is relished by those no longer interested in the false, temporary glorification of this cosmic manifestation. Descriptions of the Lord are the right medicine for the conditioned soul undergoing repeated birth and death. Therefore, who will cease hearing such glorification of the Lord except a butcher or one who is killing his own self?" https://vedy.online/en/sb10/1/4
Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam 10.1.38
"O great hero, one who takes birth is sure to die, for death is born with the body. One may die today or after hundreds of years, but death is sure for every living entity." https://vedy.online/en/sb10/1/38
Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam 10.1.39
"When the present body turns to dust and is again reduced to five elements — earth, water, fire, air and ether — the proprietor of the body, the living being, automatically receives another body of material elements according to his fruitive activities. When the next body is obtained, he gives up the present body." https://vedy.online/en/sb10/1/39
Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam 10.1.40
"Just as a person traveling on the road rests one foot on the ground and then lifts the other, or as a worm on a vegetable transfers itself to one leaf and then gives up the previous one, the conditioned soul takes shelter of another body and then gives up the one he had before." https://vedy.online/en/sb10/1/40
Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam 10.1.41
"Having experienced a situation by seeing or hearing about it, one contemplates and speculates about that situation, and thus one surrenders to it, not considering his present body. Similarly, by mental adjustments one dreams at night of living under different circumstances, in different bodies, and forgets his actual position. Under this same process, one gives up his present body and accepts another [tathā dehāntara-prāptiḥ]." https://vedy.online/en/sb10/1/41
Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam 10.1.42
"At the time of death, according to the thinking, feeling and willing of the mind, which is involved in fruitive activities, one receives a particular body. In other words, the body develops according to the activities of the mind. Changes of body are due to the flickering of the mind, for otherwise the soul could remain in its original, spiritual body." https://vedy.online/en/sb10/1/42
Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam 10.1.43
"When the luminaries in the sky, such as the moon, the sun and the stars, are reflected in liquids like oil or water, they appear to be of different shapes — sometimes round, sometimes long, and so on — because of the movements of the wind. Similarly, when the living entity, the soul, is absorbed in materialistic thoughts, he accepts various manifestations as his own identity because of ignorance. In other words, one is bewildered by mental concoctions because of agitation from the material modes of nature." https://vedy.online/en/sb10/1/43
Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam 10.1.44
"Therefore, since envious, impious activities cause a body in which one suffers in the next life, why should one act impiously? Considering one’s welfare, one should not envy anyone, for an envious person must always fear harm from his enemies, either in this life or in the next." https://vedy.online/en/sb10/1/44
Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam 10.1.48
"As long as he has intelligence and bodily strength, an intelligent person must try to avoid death. This is the duty of every embodied person. But if death cannot be avoided in spite of one’s endeavors, a person facing death commits no offense." https://vedy.online/en/sb10/1/48
Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam 10.1.51
"When a fire, for some unseen reason, leaps over one piece of wood and sets fire to the next, the reason is destiny. Similarly, when a living being accepts one kind of body and leaves aside another, there is no other reason than unseen destiny." https://vedy.online/en/sb10/1/51
Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam 10.2.22
"A person who is very cruel is regarded as dead even while living, for while he is living or after his death, everyone condemns him. And after the death of a person in the bodily concept of life, he is undoubtedly transferred to the hell known as Andhatama." https://vedy.online/en/sb10/2/22
