Text 33] |The Lord Slays the King of the Demons 153

sky is but a partial manifestation of the Lord’s effulgence. There are
many wonderful qualities of different living entities, but whatever ex-
traordinary things exist are but part of the Lord’s ¢ejas, His illumination
or brilliance. The deep waves of the seas and oceans and the many other
wonders within the creation of the Supreme Personality of Godhead all
become insignificant when the Lord, in His special feature, incarnates
within this material world. Everything is insignificant in comparison to
His personal, all-defeating transcendental qualities.

TRANSLATION

Airplanes were thrown into outer space and the upper planetary
system by the hair on Nrsimmhadeva’s head. Because of the pressure
of the Lord’s lotus feet, the earth appeared to slip from its posi-
tion, and all the hills and mountains sprang up due to His intolera-

ble force. Because of the Lord’s bodily effulgence, both the sky

and all directions diminished in their natural illumination.
