universes, He is the root cause of innumerable incarnations in all the uni-
verses. There are more than 500,000 incarnations of Manu in only one
universe, besides other incarnations in different universes. In the spiritual
world, however, beyond the mahat-tattva, there is no question of incarna-
tions, but there are plenary expansions of the Lord in the different Vai-
kunthas. The planets in the spiritual sky are at least three times the number
of those within the innumerable universes in the mahat-tattva. And all the
Narayana forms of the Lord are but expansions of His Vasudeva feature,
and thus He is Vasudeva, Narayana and Krsna simultaneously. He is “‘Sri-
krsna govinda hare murare, he natha narayana vasudeva,” all in one. His
qualities, therefore, cannot be counted by anyone, however great one may
be.
