TRANSLATION

How is Pradyumna, the great general of the Vrsni family? Is He
happy? And is Aniruddha, the plenary expansion of the Personality of
Godhead, faring well?

PURPORT

Pradyumna and Aniruddha are also expansions of the Personality of
Godhead, and thus They are also Visnu-tattva. At Dvaraka Lord Vasudeva
is engaged in His transcendental pastimes along with His plenary expan-
sions, namely Sankarsana, Pradyumna and Aniruddha, and therefore each
and every one of Them can be addressed as the Personality of Godhead, as
it is mentioned in connection with the name Aniruddha.
