Shri Gokulnathji's Hasya Prasangs: Prasang - 25

Only a devotee who is entitled can drink/digest the divine/transcendental Nectar (Adhikarij Bhagvad Ras Pi Shake Che):

Once He said Himself, that one time, in Kailas, Parvatiji asked Mahadevji that... You do Bhajan regularly/constantly, so tell me..At this both arrived on earth and sat in a tranquil place in a forest and this talk about Bhajan was told... there was a parrot there (suvo/popat).. he flew off, so Mahadevji said that the parrot took away the Ras. Therefore, He became Khasi-ana and ran away. This Suvo (Shuk/Parrot), went to Indralok and was kept there. This is Shukdevji.

Vivechan - The listener of Bhagvad Varta maybe important, but the taker of the Ras can be anyone. Here, Mahadevji is telling Parvatiji the story, and the Ras of that talk was taken away by the parrot who was sitting there. Meaning, that only the one who is entitled is able to digest the talk (Bhagvad varta - the subject matter). The drinker of the Ras of the fruit is the parrot (Suvo), in this way Shukdevji is also the drinker of the nectar which is the cream-of-the-cream of all the Vedas (Shrimad Bhagvatam)
