	The term ''bhāgavata'' signifies the highest echelon of spiritual knowledge. It is derived from the word ''Bhagavān'', meaning the Supreme Personality of Godhead who possesses all opulences. ~~Therefore,~~ the "''Bhāgavata'' science" or ''bhāgavata-dharma'' is the study of the nature of God and the living entity's eternal relationship with Him. Unlike mundane sectarian religions, the ''Bhāgavata'' presents a universal, scientific analysis of reality that rejects all deception and establishes the ultimate welfare for all beings.

	Etymologically, ''bhāgavata'' means "in relationship with God." ~~Just~~ as ''Bhagavān'' refers to the Lord who possesses all fortunes, a ''bhāgavata'' is one who possesses the Lord in their heart. This science is the remedy for the ignorance of identifying the self with the body.

	One of the most profound applications of this science is the concept of "Bhāgavata Communism." While material communism claims everything belongs to the state, the ''Bhāgavata'' ~~asserts~~ that everything belongs to God.
