Krsna's Personality
204
understand that the son of Nanda Mahārāj is the source of the Mahā-Viṣṇu also. This is confirmed in the  Brahma-saṁhitā , wherein it is stated: “Let me offer my respectful obeisances unto Govinda, whose partial representation is the Mahā-Viṣṇu.” The gigantic form of the Mahā-Viṣṇu is the source of generation for innumerable universes. Innumerable universes are coming out of His exhaling breath, and the same universes are going back in with His inhaling breath. This Mahā-Viṣṇu is also a plenary portion of a portion of Kṛṣṇa.
