TRANSLATION

"All kinds of liberation exist under the feet of the Supreme Personality of Godhead; therefore He is known as mukti-pada. According to another meaning, mukti is the ninth subject, and the Supreme Personality of Godhead is the shelter of liberation.

PURPORT

Lord Sri Krishna is also known as Mukunda, or He who gives transcendental bliss by offering all kinds of mukti. Srimad-Bhagavatam is divided into twelve cantos, and in the Ninth Canto different kinds of mukti are described. But the Tenth Canto is the actual center of all discussions of mukti because the Personality of Godhead Sri Krishna, who is the tenth subject discussed in Srimad-Bhagavatam, is the exclusive subject of the Tenth Canto. Since all types of muktis reside at the lotus feet of Sri Krishna, He may be called mukti-pada.
