Even Srila Prabhupada Lilamrta can be counted as Bhagavatam. At least by Prabhupada’s own words because there is that lecture where someone asked Prabhupada, “Is Joan of Arc also in the Bhagavatam?” Also known as Jean de Arc. Joan of Arc in Bhagavatam? And Prabhupada says, “Eh? Joan of Arc in Bhagavatam?” And then he says, “Yes, yes, she is also in Bhagavatam because the life and activities of the devotees are also Bhagavatam. Yes, also Bhagavatam.” So in that way the life and activities of Prabhupada are also Bhagavatam. Bhagavatam illustrated.
