The Exposition of the Krishna Mantra (Kṛṣṇa-mantra-prakāśa): Nyāsa, Dhyāna, Worship, Yantra, and Prayoga
चलत्कुण्डलोल्लासिगंडस्थलश्रीभरं सुन्दरं मंदहासं सुनासम् । सुकार्तस्वराभांबरं दिव्यभूषं क्वणत्किंकिणीजालमत्तानुलेपम् ॥ ८४ ॥
calatkuṇḍalollāsigaṃḍasthalaśrībharaṃ sundaraṃ maṃdahāsaṃ sunāsam | sukārtasvarābhāṃbaraṃ divyabhūṣaṃ kvaṇatkiṃkiṇījālamattānulepam || 84 ||
كان بديع الجمال: خدّاه يلمعان ببهاء الأقراط المتمايلة؛ وابتسامته رقيقة وأنفه حسن التكوين. ثيابه تتلألأ كذهبٍ مصفّى؛ يتحلّى بحُليٍّ سماوية؛ وشبكة الأجراس ترنّ، وقد مُسِح بمرهمٍ نفيسٍ عاطرٍ يبعث نشوةً في القلب.
Narada (descriptive narration within the dialogue framework)
Vrata: none
Primary Rasa: bhakti
Secondary Rasa: shringara
It guides dhyāna (contemplative visualization) by detailing auspicious divine features—radiance, gentle smile, sacred adornments—so the mind becomes steady, refined, and devotionally absorbed.
By focusing attention on the Lord’s charming, ornamented form and auspicious marks, the verse supports bhakti through loving remembrance (smaraṇa) and devotional meditation (dhyāna), turning aesthetic delight into worship.
The verse showcases precise Sanskrit composition and descriptive compounds (useful for Vyākaraṇa and Chandas sensitivity), helping reciters preserve correct pronunciation, meaning, and meditative visualization in ritual recitation.
