TRANSLATION

“1 worship Govinda, the primeval Lord, who is endowed with great power. The
glowing effulgence of His transcendental form is the impersonal Brahman, which is
absolute, complete and unlimited and which displays the varieties of countless
planets, with their different opulences, in millions and millions of universes.”’

PURPORT

This verse appears in the Brahma-samhita (5.40). Each and every one of the
countless universes is full of innumerable planets with different constitutions and

atmospheres. All these come from the unlimited nondual Brahman, or Complete
Whole, which exists in absolute knowledge. The origin of that unlimited Brahman
effulgence is the transcendental body of Govinda, who is offered respectful
obeisances as the original and supreme Personality of Godhead.
