I have heard this from the Vedas with whose help he became cognisable. Also that Lord Kr«na is that supreme man (Purusa) . l He is abiding in the form of Atman in that Ak$ara Atman (imperishable soul) . He is of the form of the mass of Bliss, the embodiment of Ananda (bliss and felicity). He takes interest in divine sports in the midst of the cowhcrdesses. He is embellished with a crown decorated with peacock plumes and studded with shining gems. He shines with the two earrings having the brilliance of lightning. His eyes beautiful like the Khaiijarita (birds) move up to (are longish up to) the ears. He indulges in dalliance with the beloved cowherdesses in every flower-grove. He wears a divine yellow garment. He has smeared himself with sandal paste. He fascinates the cowherdesses with the notes of his flute sprinkled with the nectar oozing out of his lips. He is the Cidananda (the bliss of knowledge). He suppresses the arrogance of Ananga (Cupid) (by means of his beauty) . He is a past-master in the arts of love of crores of Kamas. He is as pure as the rays of crores of Moons. Bees and deer surround him. Round his neck with three lines a diamond necklace shines with beads interspersed. To control cows from straying away, he runs about here and there on the high banks of Yamuni in the jungle ofTamala trees and trees of Kadamba, Campaka, A£oka and Parijata that appear very beautiful. It (the forest) is full of the chirping sounds of cuckoos, parrots, doves and peacocks. He is particularly fond of sporting with Radha.
