Question: Parīkṣit maharaj was cursed to die in 7 days and being a pure devotee he did not get angry or depressed that for a small mistake he is being cursed to die. He just took it as the will of the Lord and surrendered to the Lord, and then became the instrument for Śrīmad Bhāgavatam to be delivered through Śukadeva Gosvāmī. How do we as sadakas, we develop this mood of surrender and complete dependence on the Lord?
Jayapataka Swami: We can see that Parīkṣit Mahārāja, by practicing devotional service, he achieved this excellent position. And if we read Bhagavad-gītā, Śrīmad Bhāgavatam, and practice devotional service, then one day we may achieve that position. Hare Kṛṣṇa!
