Akrūra’s Mission: The Departure from Vraja and the Yamunā Vision of Viṣṇu-Ananta
भूयस्तत्रापि सोऽद्राक्षीत्स्तूयमानमहीश्वरम् । सिद्धचारणगन्धर्वैरसुरैर्नतकन्धरै: ॥ ४४ ॥ सहस्रशिरसं देवं सहस्रफणमौलिनम् । नीलाम्बरं विसश्वेतं शृङ्गै: श्वेतमिव स्थितम् ॥ ४५ ॥
bhūyas tatrāpi so ’drākṣīt stūyamānam ahīśvaram siddha-cāraṇa-gandharvair asurair nata-kandharaiḥ
Nakita ni Akrūra ang Diyos na may sanlibong ulo, sanlibong talukbong at sanlibong korona. Nakasuot Siya ng bughaw na kasuotan at may maputing ningning na gaya ng hibla ng tangkay ng lotus, kaya Siya’y wari’y puting Bundok Kailāsa na may maraming tuktok.
Ahīśvara refers to Ananta (Śeṣa), the divine serpent and expansion of the Lord, revered by celestial beings and even acknowledged by Asuras.
Because Ananta Śeṣa is a supremely worshipable divine manifestation; the verse emphasizes universal glorification of the Lord’s expansions by higher beings.
Cultivate the habit of praising the Divine (stuti) and respecting sacred reality beyond ego—true greatness naturally draws humility and reverence.
