### CC Adi 5.124

> এত মূর্তিভেদ করি’ কৃষ্ণসেবা করে ।\
> কৃষ্ণের শেষতা পাঞা ‘শেষ’ নাম ধরে ॥১২৪॥

> eta mūrti-bheda kari' kṛṣṇa-sevā kare\
> kṛṣṇera śeṣatā pāñā 'śeṣa' nāma dhare

*eta*—so many; *mūrti-bheda*—different forms; *kari'*—taking; *kṛṣṇa-sevā kare*—serves Lord Kṛṣṇa; *kṛṣṇera*—of Lord Kṛṣṇa; *śeṣatā*—ultimate end; *pāñā*—having reached; *śeṣa nāma dhare*—assumes the name Śeṣa Nāga.

**He is thus called Lord Śeṣa, for He has attained the ultimate end of servitude to Kṛṣṇa. He takes many forms for the service of Kṛṣṇa, and thus He serves the Lord.**
