Yavīnara, Kṛtimān, Satyadhṛti, Dṛḍhanemi, Supārśva — yet another stretch of name-virtues. The Bhāgavatam is patient with lists; we should be patient in attention.

Reflection Questions

What virtue do I most need to be reading and re-reading until it shapes me?
Where could deliberate slowing through a long list strengthen the spiritual muscle of attention?
