Suta said:- This Purana contains the essence of all knowledge and confers Dharma, Artha, Kama and Moksha.
In olden days, Vyasa narrated to me this Purana which he had heard from Brahma -
VyAsa who had divided a single Veda into Vedas.
He divided the single Purana samhita into eighteen samhitAs. Shuka, the son of Vyasa, has narrated to me this fact. And I have related to you this Purana, O Shaunaka.
Since you have asked me to narrate the Purana to the sages. One who reads or hears or hires the services of a Pundit to recite it to others, or writes it himself or hires the services of a scribe to write it out or keeps the Purana at home, attains Dharma, Artha, Kama or Moksha, whatever may be the choice. He satiates his desires by listening to this Purana.
As Vishnu is a celebrated deity, Garuda is a venerable celebrity. In praising Garuda, we praise Vishnu. By singing praise for Garuda, formerly King Vasu satiated his desires.
