Hare Krsna!
I hear that Srimad Bhagavatam is very benificial to read as it is the glorification of the Lord. But of course one needs to be at a certain level to absorb its potency and spiritual effects, not to metion understand it to the fullest capacity.
I was wondering what are these qualifications?
I currently chant 3 rounds a day, nearly a complete vegeterian, and have read Krsna, Bhagavad Gita, Krsna-Reservoir of Pleasure, Facts for Life, Science of Self Realization, and a few other books. From sites it is said after reading these one should proceed to read Srimad Bhagvatam, but I feel that I am not ready to read such a magnimous and spiritual book. I feel as though i am not pure enough.
What other things do i have to do before I become pure enough to read Srimad Bhagvatam?
Eg: vege, increase rounds etc...
I also hear it is good to read Srimad Bhagvatam Canto 1:1 but should the whole Bhagvatam be read after this?
Please help for i want to read about the pastimes of the Lord dearly.

Hare Krsna!
Please Help!
