So who will be interested in Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam? That is mentioned here: harer guṇākṣipta-matiḥ. Kṣipta, kṣipta means madness. Here is a man kṣipta, means he's mad. So there are two kinds of madness.

This is very lower stage of devotion, to ask something from the Supreme Lord. Ārto arthārthī jijñāsur ([[Vanisource:BG 7.16|BG 7.16]]). In the beginning, provided one is..., background is pious...

Those who are simply acting piously, such person can approach the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Not impious person can...
