Further Traits of Sri Krsna 208
Meticulous Dresser

A person who is very fond of dressing Himself is called lalita, or a
meticulous dresser. This characteristic was found in Krsna in two
ways: sometimes He used to decorate Srimati Radharani with various
marks, and sometimes, when He was preparing to kill demons like
Aristasura, He would take care to arrange His belt very nicely.

Magnanimous

Persons who can give themselves to anyone are called magnani-
mous. No one could be more magnanimous than Krsna because He is
always prepared to give Himself completely to His devotee. Even to
one who is not a devotee, Krsna in His form of Lord Caitanya is pre-
pared to give Himself and to grant deliverance.

Although Krsna is independent of everyone, out of His causeless
mercy He is dependent upon Garga Rsi for religious instruction; for
learning the military art He is dependent upon Satyaki; and for good
counsel He is dependent upon His friend, Uddhava.
