Srimad Bhagavatam — Dashama Skandha, Shloka 33
The Deliverance of Nalakūvara and Maṇigrīva
Yamala-Arjuna Līlā Prelude and Culmination
तस्मै तुभ्यं भगवते वासुदेवाय वेधसे । आत्मद्योतगुणैश्छन्नमहिम्ने ब्रह्मणे नम: ॥ ३३ ॥
tasmai tubhyaṁ bhagavate vāsudevāya vedhase ātma-dyota-guṇaiś channa- mahimne brahmaṇe namaḥ
因此，我们向薄伽梵瓦苏戴瓦、造化之主（韦达斯）顶礼；你的威德被自身能量之德所遮覆。你即至上梵，我们唯有敬拜叩首。
Instead of trying to understand Kṛṣṇa in detail, it is better to offer our respectful obeisances unto Him, for He is the origin of everything and He is everything. Because we are covered by the material modes of nature, He is very difficult for us to understand unless He reveals Himself to us. Therefore it is better for us to acknowledge that He is everything and offer obeisances unto His lotus feet.
