Srimad Bhagavatam 5.8.27
by Badrinarayan Swami 11/28/2021
At death, a person always thinks of that subject matter in which he has been engrossed during his life. According to the law, because Bharata Mahārāja was always thinking of the deer and forgetting his worship of the Supreme Lord, he acquired the body of a deer. However, due to his having been elevated to the topmost platform of devotional service, he did not forget the incidents of his past life. He became determined to finish his devotional service even in the body of a deer. It is proved herein that due to the grace of the Supreme Lord, a devotee is never vanquished. Due to his willful neglect of devotional service, a devotee may be punished for a short time, but he again revives his devotional service and returns home, back to Godhead.
