SUMMARY: Sri Hari is Lakshmimanohara, which means Sri Hari makes the mind of Goddess Lakshmi blossom with happiness; he is far away from all vices or drawbacks or demerits; he fulfills all desires; like the petals of red lily, his appearance, charm and beauty gives pleasure; he is Shabala since he is multi-coloured; he is ultimate shelter for his devotees; he is always steadfast, firm and constant; he is the well-wisher of SharkarAkSha, who were highly knowledgeable; he is the preserver, protector of the spiritually awakened people; Lord Sri Jagannatha VitThala he arrives on earth by assuming several forms or incarnations.

Through incarnations, Lord Hari displays his glories and his incarnations are just symbols of the kindness of Sri Hari. ShyAma is indicative of special form of Lord Hari that presides in the heart of devotees. Shabala means Lord Hari has so many incarnations.
