Prayers Offered by Lord Brahma to Lord Krsna 109

conscious person, there is no such thing as impediments in hearth and
home. Nor is there illusion.

“I can also understand that Your appearance as a small cowherd boy, a
child of the cowherd men, is not at all a material activity. You are so much
obliged by their affection that You are here to enthuse them with more
loving service by Your transcendental presence. In Vrndavana there is no
distinction between material and spiritual because everything is dedicated
to Your loving service. My dear Lord, Your Vrndavana pastimes are simply
to enthuse Your devotees. If someone takes Your Vrndavana pastimes to
be material, he will be misled.

As the Supersoul in everyone’s heart, You know everything. Please, there-
fore accept me as Your surrendered servant. I hope that You will excuse
me for disturbing You in Your pastimes with Your friends and calves.
Now if You will kindly allow me, I will immediately leave so You can
enjoy Your friends and calves without my presence.

“My dear Lord Krsna, Your very name suggests that You are all-
attractive. The attraction of the sun and the moon are all due to You. By
the attraction of the sun, You are beautifying the very existence of the
Yadu dynasty. With the attraction of the moon, You are enhancing the
