234 Srimad-Bhagavatam [Canto 4, Ch. 7
TRANSLATION
When Lord Visnu accepted the oblations offered in the sacrifice,
Daksa, the Prajapati, began with great pleasure to offer respectful prayers
unto Him. The Supreme Personality of Godhead is actually the master of
all sacrifices and preceptor of all the prajapatis, and He is served even by
such personalities as Nanda and Sunanda.

TRANSLATION
Dakga addressed the Supreme Personality of Godhead: My dear Lord,
You are transcendental to all mental speculative positions. You are
completely spiritual, devoid of all fearfulness, and You are always in
control of the material energy. Even though You are situated transcen-
dentally, You appear in the material energy, but You are always free from
material contamination because You are completely self-sufficient.
