Text 9] Lord Krsna’s Entrance in Dvaraka 563

PURPORT

The Lord in His eternal personal form can be seen only by the pure
devotees. The Lord is never impersonal, but He is the Supreme Absolute
Personality of Godhead possible to be visited by devotional service face to
face, which is impossible to be done even by the denizens of higher
planets. When Brahmaji and other demigods want to consult Lord Visnu,
the plenary portion of Lord Krsna, they have to wait on the shore of the
ocean of milk where Lord Visnu is lying on White Land (Svetadvipa). This
ocean of milk and the Svetadvipa planet are the replica of Vaikunthaloka
within the universe. Neither Brahmaji nor the demigods like Indra can
enter into this island of Svetadvipa, but they can stand on the shore of the
ocean of milk and transmit their message to Lord Visnu, known as
Ksirodakasayi Visnu. Therefore, the Lord is rarely seen by them, but the
inhabitants of Dvaraka, because of their being pure devotees without any
tinge of material contamination of fruitive activities and empiric philo-
sophical speculation, can see Him eye to eye by the grace of the Lord.
This is the original state of the living entities and can be attained by re-
viving our natural and constitutional state of life discovered by devo-
tional service only.
