386 Srimad-Bhagavatam [Canto 2, Ch. 7
by closing one’s eyes are certainly impossible by any kind of human en-
deavor. But not only are these activities amazing to hear, but in fact all
other activities of the Lord, whatever Ile may do, are all superhuman, as
is confirmed in the Bhagavad-gita (Bg. 4.9). And whoever knows the
superhuman activities of the Lord, due to their very transcendental nature,
becomes eligible to enter the kingdom of Krsna, and as such, after quitting
this present material body, the knower of the transcendental activities
of the Lord goes back home, back to Godhead.

TRANSLATION
When the cowherd woman [Krsna’s foster mother, Yasoda] was trying
to tie the hands of her son with ropes, she found the rope to be always
insufficient in length, and when she finally gave up, Lord Krsna, by and by,
opened His mouth, wherein the mother found all the universes situated.
Seeing this, she was doubtful in her mind, but she was convinced in a
different manner of the mystic nature of her son.
