Text 105] The Opulence and Sweetness of Krsna 287

world, as Vasudeva, Sankarsana, Pradyumna and Aniruddha. In His pastimes in the
spiritual sky, He lies down in the Causal Ocean as Karanarnavasayi, the purusa-
avatdara. His incarnations as a fish, tortoise and so on are called His causal incarna-
tions. He incarnates in the modes of nature as Lord Brahma, Lord Siva and Lord
Visnu. He also incarnates as empowered living entities like Prthu and Vyasa. The
Supersoul is His localized incarnation, and His all-pervasive aspect is the imper-
sonal Brahman.

When we consider impartially all the unlimited pastimes of the Lord, we find
that His pastimes as a human being on this planet—wherein He sports as a
cowherd boy with a flute in His hands and appears youthful and fresh like a ballet
dancer—are pastimes and features that are never subjected to material laws and
inebrieties. The wonderful beauty of Krsna is presented in the supreme planet,
Gokula (Goloka Vrndavana). Inferior to that is His representation in the spiritual
sky, and inferior to that is His representation in the external energy (Devi-dhama).
A mere drop of Krsna’s sweetness can drown these three worlds—Goloka
Vrndavana, Hari-dhama (Vaikunthaloka), and Devi-dhama (the material world).
Everywhere, Krsna’s beauty merges everyone in the ecstasy of transcendental
bliss. Actually the activities of yogamdayd are absent in the spiritual sky and the
Vaikuntha planets. She simply works in the supreme planet, Goloka Vrndavana,
and she works to manifest the activities of Krsna when He descends to the ma-
terial universe to please His innumerable devotees within the material world. Thus
a replica of the Goloka Vrndavana planet and the pastimes there are manifest on
this planet on a specific tract of land —Bhauma Vrndavana, the Vrndavana-dhama
on this planet.
