Arjuna Marries Subhadrā; Kṛṣṇa Honors Two Devotees in Mithilā (Śrutadeva and Bahulāśva)
श्रुतदेव उवाच नाद्य नो दर्शनं प्राप्त: परं परमपूरुष: । यर्हीदं शक्तिभि: सृष्ट्वा प्रविष्टो ह्यात्मसत्तया ॥ ४४ ॥
śrutadeva uvāca nādya no darśanaṁ prāptaḥ paraṁ parama-pūruṣaḥ yarhīdaṁ śaktibhiḥ sṛṣṭvā praviṣṭo hy ātma-sattayā
施鲁达瓦说:“并非唯有今日我们才得见至上人格;自他以诸能量创造此宇宙,并以其超越之体入于其中之时起,我们便一直与他相应相伴。”
This verse shows that Kṛṣṇa’s darśana is a special grace: even though He pervades and enters creation, devotees feel truly blessed when He personally reveals Himself to them.
In the context of Kṛṣṇa’s visit, Śrutadeva expresses astonishment and humility—acknowledging that the Lord who creates and pervades the cosmos has now personally come within their sight.
Cultivate gratitude and humility: even if God is everywhere, treat moments of spiritual clarity, worship, and devotion as rare gifts, and respond with sincere service and remembrance.
