Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam SB 3.25:The Glories of Devotional Service
Here are the key points from Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam Canto 3, Chapter 25, Verse 5 (ŚB 3.25.5):
Kapila's Stay at Bindu-sarovara:
Lord Kapila, after Kardama Muni departed for the forest, stayed near Lake Bindu-sarovara.
Duty Toward His Mother:
Kapila remained to please His mother, Devahūti, demonstrating great filial responsibility.
Vedic Family System:
According to Vedic tradition, when a father leaves for the forest (sannyāsa or renunciation), a grown son assumes responsibility for supporting and caring for the mother.
This ensures the wife does not experience much separation from her husband.
Emphasis on Detachment:
The Vedic system encourages householders to renounce family life after fulfilling their duties, rather than being entangled in it until death. The grown son takes over the family responsibilities.
These principles embody the values of selfless service, familial duty, and detachment from household attachments as prescribed in Vedic teachings.
