sattvādyāḥ prakṛti-guṇā yad-īkṣayāsan

yad-rūpaṁ dhruvam akṛtaṁ yad ekam ātman

nānādhāt katham u ha veda tasya vartma

He is the cause of creation, maintenance and destruction of the universe. By his glance the guṇas of matter become capable of acting. His form is eternal, since it is not created. He is one, but manifested in many forms. How can one understand his nature?

As long as the Lord does not glance at prakṛti, the guṇas are not capable of producing mahat-tattva and other elements. His form is eternal (dhruvam) because it is spiritual, not manufactured (akṛtam). However, though he is one, he holds and nourishes many products of prakṛti in the hair pores of his body (ātmani). Who knows the truth (vartma) about him or the method to attain him?

|| 5.25.10 ||

mūrtiṁ naḥ puru-kṛpayā babhāra sattvaṁ

saṁśuddhaṁ sad-asad idaṁ vibhāti tatra

yal-līlāṁ mṛga-patir ādade 'navadyām

ādātuṁ svajana-manāṁsy udāra-vīryaḥ

By his great mercy the Lord has shown his form of pure sattva, within which the universe of cause and effect exists and by which, like a lion, performing numerous heroic deeds, he enacted spotless pastimes to attract the minds of his devotees.

Nārada praises the Lord appearing in avatāra forms like Rāma and Kṛṣṇa. Is his form material? No, it is pure sattva. In this spiritual form resides the universe of sat and asat. This was shown to Yaśodā. With that form, like a lion’s, he performed impeccable (anavadyām) pastimes. Uddhava said:

 

kaumārīṁ darśayaṁś ceṣṭāṁ prekṣaṇīyāṁ vrajaukas

rudann iva hasan mugdha bāla-siṁhāvalokan

 

Showing his attractive infant pastimes to the people of Vraja, he would pretend to weep to get what he wanted and laugh when he got those things. When demons attacked, he appeared like a young lion, showing his bravery in spite of his fear. SB 3.2.28

 

Why did he perform pastimes? He who has heroic deeds such as lifting Govardhana, (udāra-līlāḥ) did it to capture the minds of his devotees, which are like elephants.
