Srimad Bhagavatam Canto 01, Chapter 04, Text 07

SB 1.4.7

katham va pandaveyasya
rajarser munina saha
samvadah samabhut tata
yatraisa satvati srutih
 
Translation by His Divine Grace A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Srila Prabhupada: 
 
How did it so happen that King Pariksit met this great sage, making it possible for this great transcendental essence of the Vedas [Bhagavatam] to be sung to him?
 
Purport by His Divine Grace A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Srila Prabhupada: 
 
Srimad-Bhagavatam is stated here as the essence of the Vedas. It is not an imaginary story as it is sometimes considered by unauthorized men. It is also called Suka-samhita, or the Vedic hymn spoken by Sri Sukadeva Gosvami, the great liberated sage.
