My dear Lord, it is after You endeavor that Lord Brahma, Indra
and the other directors of the cosmic manifestation become oc-
cupied with their activities. It is after You perceive the material en-

Personality of Godhead holds all the universes on His heads like
seeds of mustard. I offer my respectful obeisances unto You, that
Supreme Personality, who has thousands of hoods.
