- TRANSLATION
- 1) Krsna who is known as Govinda is the Supreme Godhead. He has an eternal blissful spiritual body. He
- is the origin of all. He has no other origin and He is the prime cause of all causes.
- 2) I worship Govinda, the primeval Lord, the first progenitor who is tending the cows, yielding all desire,
- in abodes built with spiritual gems, surrounded by millions of purpose trees, always served with
- great reverence and affection by hundreds of thousands of lakshmis or gopis.
- 3) I worship Govinda, the primeval Lord, who is adept in playing on His flute, with blooming eyes like
- lotus petals with head decked with peacock's feather, with the figure of beauty tinged with the hue of
- blue clouds, and His unique loveliness charming millions of Cupids.
- 4) I worship Govinda, the primeval Lord, round whose neck is swinging a garland of flowers beautified
- with the moon-locket, whose two hands are adorned with the flute and jeweled ornaments, who
- always revels in pastimes of love, whose graceful threefold-bending form of Syamasundara is
- eternally manifest.
- 5) I worship Govinda, the primeval Lord, whose transcendental form is full of bliss, truth, substantiality
- and is thus full of the most dazzling splendor. Each of the limbs of that transcendental figure possesses
- in Himself, the full-fledged functions of all the organs, and eternally sees, maintains and manifests
- the infinite universes, both spiritual and mundane.
- 6) I worship Govinda, the primeval Lord, who is inaccessible to the Vedas, but obtainable by pure
- unalloyed devotion of the soul, who is without a second, who is not subject to decay, is without
- a beginning, whose form is endless, who is the beginning, and the eternal purusha; yet He is a
- person possessing the beauty of blooming youth.
- 7) I worship Govinda, the primeval Lord, only the tip of the toe of whose lotus feet is approached by
- the yogis who aspire after the transcendental and betake themselves to pranayama by drilling
- the respiration; or by the jnanis who try to find out the non-differentiated Brahman by the process
- of elimination of the mundane, extending over thousands of millions of years.
- 8) He is an undifferentiated entity as there is no distinction between potency and the possessor thereof.
- In His work of creation of millions of worlds, His potency remains inseparable. All the universes exist in
- Him and He is present in His fullness in every one of the atoms that are scattered throughout the
- universe, at one and the same time. Such is the primeval Lord whom I adore.
- 9) I adore the same Govinda, the primeval Lord, in whose praise men, who are imbued with devotion,
- sing the mantra-suktas told by the Vedas, by gaining their appropriate beauty, greatness,
- thrones, conveyances and ornaments.
- 10) I worship Govinda, the primeval Lord, residing in His own realm, Goloka, with Radha, resembling
- His own spiritual figure, the embodiment of the ecstatic potency possessed of the sixty-four
- artistic activities, in the company of Her confidantes [sakhis], embodiments of the extensions of Her
- bodily form, permeated and vitalized by His ever-blissful spiritual rasa.
- 11) I worship Govinda, the primeval Lord, who is Syamasundara, Krishna Himself with
- inconceivable innumerable attributes, whom the pure devotees see in their heart of hearts with the eye
- of devotion tinged with the salve of love.
- 12) I worship Govinda, the primeval Lord, who manifested Himself personally as Krishna and the
- different avataras in the world in the forms of Rama, Nrisimha, Vamana, etc., as His subjective portions.
- 13) I worship Govinda, the primeval Lord, whose effulgence is the source of the nondifferentiated
- Brahman mentioned in the Upanishads, being differentiated from the infinity of glories of the
- mundane universe appears as the indivisible, infinite, limitless, truth.
- 14) I worship Govinda, the primeval Lord, who is the absolute substantive principle being the
- ultimate entity in the form of the support of all existence whose external potency embodies the
- threefold mundane qualities, viz., sattva, rajas, and tamas and diffuses the Vedic knowledge regarding
- the mundane world.
- 15) I worship Govinda, the primeval Lord, whose glory ever triumphantly dominates the mundane world
- by the activity of His own pastimes, being reflected in the mind of recollecting souls as the
- transcendental entity of ever-blissful cognitive rasa.
- 16) Lowest of all is located Devi-dhama [mundane world], next above it is Mahesa-dhama [abode
- of Mahesa]; above Mahesa-dhama is placed Hari-dhama [abode of Hari] and above them all is
- located Krishna's own realm named Goloka. I adore the primeval Lord Govinda, who has allotted
- their respective authorities to the rulers of those graded realms.
- 17) The external potency Maya who is of the nature of the shadow of the cit potency, is worshiped by
- all people as Durga, the creating, preserving and destroying agency of this mundane world. I adore
- the primeval Lord Govinda in accordance with whose will Durga conducts herself.
- 18) Just as milk is transformed into curd by the action of acids, but yet the effect curd is neither same
- as, nor different from, its cause, viz., milk, so I adore the primeval Lord Govinda of whom the state
- of Sambhu is a transformation for the performance of the work of destruction.
- 19) The light of one candle being communicated to other candles, although it burns separately in them,
- is the same in its quality. I adore the primeval Lord Govinda who exhibits Himself equally in the
- same mobile manner in His various manifestations.
- 20) I adore the primeval Lord Govinda who assuming His own great subjective form, who bears the
- name of Sesha, replete with the all-accommodating potency, and reposing in the Causal Ocean with
- the infinity of the world in the pores of His hair, enjoys creative sleep [yoga-nidra].
- 21) Brahma and other lords of the mundane worlds, appearing from the pores of hair of Maha-
- Vishnu, remain alive as long as the duration of one exhalation of the latter [Maha-Vishnu]. I adore
- the primeval Lord Govinda of whose subjective personality Maha-Vishnu is the portion of portion.
- 22) I adore the primeval Lord Govinda from whom the separated subjective portion Brahma receives
- his power for the regulation of the mundane world, just as the sun manifests some portion of his own
- light in all the effulgent gems that bear the names of suryakanta, etc.
- 23) I adore the primeval Lord Govinda, whose lotus feet are always held by Ganesa upon the pair of
- tumuli protruding from his elephant head in order to obtain power for his function of destroying all
- the obstacles on the path of progress of the three worlds.
- 24) The three worlds are composed of the nine elements, viz., fire, earth, ether, water, air, direction,
- time, soul and mind. I adore the primeval Lord Govinda from whom they originate, in whom they exist
- and into whom they enter at the time of the universal cataclysm.
- 25) The sun who is the king of all the planets, full of infinite effulgence, the image of the good soul, is
- as the eye of this world. I adore the primeval Lord Govinda in pursuance of whose order the sun
- performs his journey mounting the wheel of time.
- 26) I adore the primeval Lord Govinda, by whose conferred power are maintained the
- manifested potencies, that are found to exist, of all virtues, all vices, the Vedas, the penances and all
- jivas, from Brahma to the meanest insect.
- 27) I adore the primeval Lord Govinda, who burns up to their roots all fruitive activities of those who
- are imbued with devotion and impartially ordains for each the due enjoyment of the fruits of
- one's activities, of all those who walk in the path of work, in accordance with the chain of their
- previously performed works, no less in the case of the tiny insect that bears the name of indragopa than
- in that of Indra, king of the devas.
- 28) I adore the primeval Lord Govinda, the meditators of whom, by meditating upon Him under the
- sway of wrath, amorous passion, natural friendly love, fear, parental affection, delusion, reverence
- and willing service, attain to bodily forms befitting the nature of their contemplation.
- 29) I worship that transcendental seat, known as Svetadvipa where as loving consorts the Laksmis in
- their unalloyed spiritual essence practice the amorous service of the Supreme Lord Krishna as their
- only lover; where every tree is a transcendental purpose tree; where the soil is the purpose gem, all
- water is nectar, every word is a song, every gait is a dance, the flute is the favorite attendant, effulgence
- is full of transcendental bliss and the supreme spiritual entities are all enjoyable and tasty,
- where numberless milk cows always emit transcendental oceans of milk; where there is eternal existence
- of transcendental time, who is ever present and without past or future and hence is not subject to
- the quality of passing away even for the space of half a moment. That realm is known as Goloka only to
- a very few self-realized souls in this world.
