The Kumāras said: O lord of unlimited qualities! He who resides in the heart, invisible to the sinful, today has been seen by our eyes. When your secret nature was described previously by Brahmā who was born from you, it entered our intelligence through the ears.
What unlimited great mercy! We have experienced the bliss of directly meeting the Lord, by his mercy! We are so fortunate! O unlimited Lord, ocean of unlimited powers and sweetness (ananta)! Though situated in the heart, you are not visible to the sinful. But you have appeared to us today in front of our eyes, and also previously. “When did I appear previously?” You do not remember. When your secret nature was described by Brahmā, it entered our intelligence through the ears. In this way we have previously attained you. Brahmā said, “O my sons, realizers of brahman! Meeting me directly is millions of times more blissful than realizing Brahman. Let that be! Bhagavān, dark like a blue lotus, with four strong arms, decorated with bracelets, armbands, and earrings, with moon like face, residing in Vaikuṇṭha, is available by bhakti.” When we heard the blessings of mercy given by our father, a great devotee of the Lord, the fruits of that blessing would definitely appear in the future. We know that this meeting today with you arises from the incomparable mercy of your devotee. O Lord! You do not independently give mercy to us. You are dependent on your devotees. The greatness of the mercy of your devotees cannot be described.
