Shloka 45
ब्राह्मणपूजायां व्युष्टिः — Vyuṣṭi (Merit-Outcome) of Honoring Brāhmaṇas: Kṛṣṇa and Durvāsā
ततो मुनिगणा: सर्वे विस्मिता: कृष्णसंनिधौ । नेत्रै: पद्मदलप्रख्यैरपश्यंस्त जनार्दनम्
tato munigaṇāḥ sarve vismitāḥ kṛṣṇasaṃnidhau | netraiḥ padmadalaprakhyair apaśyaṃs taṃ janārdanam ||
そのとき、クリシュナの御前に座していたすべての聖仙たちは、深い驚嘆に満たされた。蓮の花弁のように開いた眼で、彼らはジャナールダナを見つめた――神なる御方の近さが、信愛と道徳の省察とを同時に呼び起こすのである。

The verse highlights the ethical-religious mood that arises in the proximity of the divine: true spiritual authority (the sages) responds not with argument but with reverent wonder, suggesting that dharma is ultimately grounded in direct recognition of the sacred and in humility before it.
Vāyudeva describes how the gathered sages, sitting near Kṛṣṇa, become amazed and fix their lotus-like, fully opened eyes upon Janārdana, emphasizing a moment of collective awe in Kṛṣṇa’s presence.
