Daksha said : The Supreme Personality of Godhead is transcendental
to the illusory energy and the physical categories it produces. He
possesses the potency for unfailing knowledge and supreme willpower,
and He is the controller of the living entities and the illusory
energy. The conditioned souls who have accepted this material
manifestation as everything cannot see Him, for He is above the
evidence of experimental knowledge. Self-evident and
self-sufficient, He is not caused by any superior cause. Let me
offer my respectful obeisances unto Him. [23] Z
`ñ` g»`§ nwéfmo@d¡{V g»`w: As the sense objects [form, taste, touch, smell and sound] cannot understand how the senses perceive them, so the conditioned soul, although residing in his body along with the Supersoul, cannot understand how the supreme spiritual person, the master of the material creation, directs his senses. Let me offer my respectful obeisances unto that Supreme Person, who is the supreme controller. [24] Xohmo@gdmo@jm
_Zdmo ^yV_mÌm- `Xmonam_mo
_Zgmo Zm_ê$n- When one's consciousness is completely purified of the contamination of material existence, groos and subtle, without being agitated as in the working and dreaming states, and when the mind is not dissolved as in susupti, deep sleep, one comes to the platform of trance. Then one's material vision and the memories of the mind, which manifests names and forms, are vanquished. Only in such a trance is the Supreme Personality of Godhead revealed. Thus let us offer our respectful obeisances unto the Supreme Personality of Godhead, who is seen in that uncontaminated, transcendental state. [26] _Zr{fUmo@ÝV©ö{X

27Ÿ&& Just as great
learned brahmanas who are expert in performing ritualistic
ceremonies and sacrifices can extract the fire dormant within wooden
fuel by chanting the fifteen Samidheni mantras, thus proving the
efficacy of the Vedic mantras, so those who are actually advanced in
consciousness - can find the Supersoul, who by His own spiritual
potency is situated within the heart. The heart is covered by the
three modes of material nature and the nine material elements
[material nature, the total material energy, the ego, mÚ{Þ麧$
dMgm {Zê${nV§ Anything expressed by material vibrations, anything ascertained by material intelligence and anything experienced by the material senses or concocted within the material mind is but an effect of the modes of material nature and therefore has nothing to do with the real nature of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. The Supreme Lord is beyond the creation of this material world, for He is the source of the material qualities and creation. As the cause of all causes, He exists before the creation and after the creation. I wish to offer my respectful obeisances unto Him. [29] `pñ_Z² `Vmo `oZ M `ñ` `ñ_¡ The Supreme Brahman, Krishna, is the ultimate resting place and source of everything. Everything is done by Him, everything belongs to Him, and everything is offered to Him. He is the ultimate objective, and whether acting or causing others to act, He is the ultimate doer. There are many causes, high and low, but since He is the cause of all causes, He is well known as the Supreme Brahman who existed before all activities. He is one without a second and has no other cause. I therefore offer my respects unto Him. [30] `ÀN>º$`mo dXVm§ dm{XZm§ d¡ Let me offer my respectful obeisances unto the all-pervading Supreme Personality of Godhead, who possesses unlimited transcendental qualities. Acting from within the cores of the hearts of all philosophers, who propagate various views, He causes them to forget their own souls while sometimes agreeing and sometimes disagreeing among themselves. Thus He creates within this material world a situation in which they are unable to come to a conclusion. I offer my obeisances unto Him. [31] AñVr{V
ZmñVr{V M dñVw{Zð>`mo- There are two
parties – namely, the theists and the atheists. The theist, who
accepts the Supersoul, finds the spiritual cause through mystic
yoga. The Sankhyite, however, who merely analyses the material
elements, comes to a conclusion of impersonalism and does not accept
a supreme cause - whether Bhagavan, Paramatma or even Brahman.
Instead, he is preoccupied with the superfluous, external activities
of material nature. Ultimately, however, both parties demonstrate
the Absolute Truth because although they offer opposing statements,
their object is the same ultimate cause. They are both approaching
the same Supreme Brahman, to whom I offer my respectful obeisances.
[32] `mo@ZwJ«hmWª
^OVm§ nmX_yb- The Supreme
Personality of Godhead, who is inconceivably opulent, who is devoid
of all material names, forms and pastimes, and who is all-pervading,
is especially merciful to the devotees who worship His lotus feet.
Thus He exhibits transcendental forms and names with His different
pastimes. May that Supreme Personality of Godhead, whose form is
eternal and full of knowledge and bliss, be merciful to me. [33] `:
àmH¥$V¡km©ZnW¡O©ZmZm§ As the air carries various characteristics of the physical elements, like the aroma of a flower or colors resulting from a mixture of dust in the air, the Lord appears through lower systems of worship according to one's desires, although He appears as the demigods and not in His original form. What is the use of these other forms ? May the original Supreme Personality of Godhead please fulfill my desires.

In the ultimate analysis, however, together they constitute the supreme one, the Personality of Godhead. Therefore those who are advanced in spiritual knowledge, see unity in diversity. For such advanced persons, the Lord's bodily decorations, His name, His fame, His attributes and forms and the weapons in His hand are manifestations of the strength of His potency. According to their elevated spiritual understanding, the omniscient Lord, who manifests various forms, is present everywhere. May He always protect us everywhere from all calamities. [32-33] {d{Xjw

unconquerable one, when You spoke about bhagavatadharma, which is
the uncontaminated religious system for achieving the shelter of

lotus feet. [40]
{df__{VZ©
`Ì Z¥Um§ Being
full of contradictions, all forms of religion but bhagavatadharma
work under conceptions of fruitive results and distinctions of
"you and I" and "yours and mine." The followers
of Srimad-Bhagavatam have no such consciousness. They are all
krishna conscious, thinking that they are Krishna's and Krishna is
their's. There are other, low-class religious systems, which are
contemplated for the killing of enemies or the gain of mystic power,
but such religious systems, being full of passion and envy, are
impure and temporary. Because they are full of envy, they are full
of irreligion. [41] H$:
jo_mo {ZOna`mo: How
can a religious system that produces envy of one's self and of
others be beneficial for oneself and for them ? What is auspicious
about following such a system ? What is actually to be gained ? By
causing pain to one's own self due to self-envy and by causing pain
to others, one arouses Your anger and practises irreligion. [42]
My
dear Lord, one's occupational duty is instructed in
Srimad-Bhagavatam and Bhagavad-gita according to Your point of view,
which never deviates from the highest goal of life. [43]

Lord, it is not impossible for one to be immediately freed from all
material contamination by seeing You. Not to speak of seeing You
personally, merely by hearing the holy name of Your Lordship only
once, even chandalas, men of the lowest class, are freed from all
material contamination. Under the circumstances, who will not be
freed from material contamination simply by seeing You ? [44] AW
^JdZ² d`_YwZm Therefore,
my dear Lord, simply seeing You has now wiped away all the
contamination of sinful activities and their results of material
attachment and lusty desires, which always filled my mind and the
core of my heart. Whatever is predicted by the great sage Narada
Muni cannot be otherwise. In other words, I have obtained your
audience as a result of being trained by Narada Muni. [45] {d{XV_ZÝV O
unlimited Supreme Personality of Godhead, whatever a living entity
does in this material world is well known to You because You are the
Supersoul. In the presence of the sun there is nothing to be
revealed by the light of a glow worm. Similarly, because You know
everything, in Your presence there is nothing for me to make known.
[46] Z_ñVwä`§
^JdVo My
dear Lord, You are the creator, maintainer and annihilator of this
cosmic manifestation, but persons who are too materialistic and who
always see separateness do not have eyes with which to see You. They
cannot understand Your real position, and therefore they conclude
that the cosmic manifestation is independent of Your opulence. My
Lord, You are the supreme pure, and You are full in all six
opulences. Therefore I offer my respectful obeisances unto You. [47] `§
d¡ œgÝV_Zw {dœg¥O: œgpÝV My
dear Lord, it is after You endeavor that Lord Brahma, Indra and the
other directors of the cosmic manifestation become occupied with
their activities. It is after You perceive the material energy, My
Lord, that the senses begin to perceive. The Supreme Personality of
Godhead holds all the universes on His heads like seeds of mustard.
I offer my respectful obeisances unto You, that Supreme Personality,
who has thousands of hoods. [48]
