FAQs
Smara is Kāma, the god of love and desire. The speaker uses him as a benchmark for irresistible attractiveness, claiming the person seen is even more captivating than Kāma.
It conveys overpowering infatuation: the speaker says their 'sarvasva' (whole self/everything) has been firmly taken away by the beloved’s beauty.
From the wording available, it reads primarily as poetic love-speech (kāvya-style) rather than a doctrinal Vaishnava or creation-theology statement; fuller chapter context would confirm the narrative frame and speaker.
