   This is really cool and funny, thanks! This also reminded me of the following:

   nigama-kalpa-taror galitaḿ phalaḿ
   śuka-mukhād amṛta-drava-saḿyutam
   pibata bhāgavataḿ rasam ālayaḿ
   muhur aho rasikā bhuvi bhāvukāḥ

   “O expert and thoughtful men, relish Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, the mature fruit of the desire tree of Vedic literatures. It emanated from the lips of Śrī Śukadeva Gosvāmī. Therefore this fruit has become even more tasteful, although its nectarean juice was already relishable for all, including liberated souls.” SB 1.1.3

     Thanks 🙂
     Funny, I was acutally going to include that verse in the comic but Srila Prabhupada’s translation doesn’t emphasize the meanings of the words rasika and bhavukah, so I thought the connection might not be obvious to most devotees. And I didn’t have access to any other translations.

     My Guru Maharaja has paraphrased that verse by saying, “Drink the wine of the Bhagavatam until you pass out, then get up and drink again and pass out again and again.” That’s where the idea came from for the comic.
