FAQs

Who is Upahartā mentioned in Srimad Bhagavatam Canto 8?

Upahartā is foretold as the son of Devahotra, born from Bṛhatī (wife of Divaspati), described as a partial expansion of Lord Hari and a master of mystic yoga.

What does “harer aṁśaḥ” mean in this verse of the Bhagavatam?

“Harer aṁśaḥ” means “a portion/partial expansion of Lord Hari,” indicating a divinely empowered being manifesting with the Lord’s potency for a particular purpose.

How can the idea of being a “yogeśvara” be applied in modern devotional life?

It points to disciplined God-centered practice—steady mind, regulated life, and devotion—so that inner strength and clarity support bhakti rather than mere display of mystic ability.
