The previous chapters in the second and third canto of Srimad Bhagavatam include several descriptions of the creation of the universe. Each of these descriptions brings new details, helping us to progressively grow our understanding. These different explanations may seem at first disconnected from each other, but they just offer the same description from different angles, just like a description of the same story from the viewpoint of different characters helps us to understand the whole plot. Now, in chapter 26, Lord Kapila offers a description that puts all the previous explanations togueter and helps us to understand the full plot behind the creation of this material world and our imprisoning inside of it. This is the last place in the Srimad Bhagavatam where this topic is discussed in depth. After this, the narration moves to other topics. This makes this description particularly important, since if we miss it, we may study the Srimad Bhagavatam and still keep elementary doubts that are answered here.
