Texts 45-46] Chanting the Song Sung by Lord Siva 108]

bhagavatas, the devotees. The conclusion is that Lord Siva wants to see
Him in complete perfection and not in the impersonalist or voidist way.
Although the Lord is one in His various forms (advaitam acyutam anadim),
still His form as the young enjoyer of the gopis and companion of the
cowherd boys (kisora-murti) is the most perfect form. Thus Vaigsnavas
accept the form of the Lord in His Vrndavana pastimes as the chief form.

TRANSLATION

The Lord’s beauty resembles a dark cloud during the rainy season. As
the rainfall glistens, His bodily features also glisten. Indeed, He is the
sum total of all beauty. The Lord has four arms and an exquisitely beauti-
ful face with eyes like lotus petals, a beautiful highly raised nose, a mind-
attracting smile, a beautiful forehead and equally beautiful and fully
decorated ears.
