avatarira dehe saba avatdarera sthiti
keho kona-mate kahe, yemana yara mati
SYNONYMS
avatarira—of the source; dehe—in the body; saba—all; avatdrera—of the incarna-
tions; -sthiti—existence; keho—someone; kona-mate—in some way; kahe—says;
yemana—as in the manner; ydra—of whom; mati—the opinion.
TRANSLATION
All other incarnations are potentially situated in the original body of the primeval
Lord. Thus according to one’s opinion, one may address Him as any one of the
incarnations.
PURPORT
It is not contradictory for a devotee to call the Supreme Lord by any one of the
various names of His plenary expansions because the original Personality of Godhead
includes all such categories. Since the plenary expansions exist within the original
person, one may call Him by any of these names. In the S17 Caitanya-bhdgavata
(Madhya 6.95) Lord Caitanya says, ‘‘l was lying asleep in the ocean of milk, but |
was awakened by the call of Nada, Sri Advaita Prabhu.”” Here the Lord refers to
His form as Ksirodaka§ayi Visnu.
