One who drinks the water of
the Ganges attains salvation,
so what to speak of one who
drinks the nectar of Bhagavad-

Mahabharata, and it is spoken
by Lord Krishna Himself, the
original Vishnu.

This Gitopanisad, Bhagavad-
gita, the essence of all the
Upanisads, is just like a cow,
and Lord Krsna, who is famous

calf, and learned scholars and
pure devotees are to drink the
nectarean milk of
Bhagavad-gita.

the Supreme Personality of
Godhead.
