SUMMARY: Husband of Sri Lakshmi, Sri Hari, who is always shining like the sublime rays of Indraneelamani and pearls and gems, exists in persons or beings with three primary characters namely Satvik, Tamas and Rajas, makes them exhibit the characteristics of all these qualities, makes them inculcate the habits and practices; existing within Lord Vayu and other gods, goddesses, Sri Hari feeds them each and every day.  

The characters In all the beings have been broadly divided into three types called Satvik, Tamas and Rajas. Satvik relates to good qualities, Tamas relates negative characters and Rajas is a mixture of cruelty, good nature etc., which are mostly noticeable among the rulers, administrators etc., Accordingly to scholars, there will be a combination or mixture of these qualities in every being. Sri Hari instills these qualities in the beings, motivates the beings to act accordingly and makes them enjoy, suffer and react in accordance with the circumstances, conditions and intensity of these qualities.

SUMMARY: Sri Hari is in the atoms, atomic energy, the visible and visibly huge objects; he conceals or hides the large object in an atom; he will submerges or immerses the subtle things; he makes huge and heavy objects float; this is the greatness of his mystic power; what can the affluent or demons do to him even if they all join hands together and attack Lord Hari? He will grind them like the grinding pit and the pounding club do with the grains.

In this stanza, Sri Jagannatha Dasaru has described the omniscience, omnipotence and omnipresence of Lord Hari directly, without mincing words. Lord Hari is “ANOraNeeyAn mahatO maheeyAn” (ಅಣೋರಣೀಯಾನ್ ಮಹತೋಮಹೀಯಾನ್). He is smaller than an atom or even the particles of an atom and he can cover the entire universe just as he did during his incarnation as Vamana. He may submerge the tiniest sand and float huge trees, herbs and shrubs.

In Mahabharata Tatparya Nirnaya, Sri Madhwacharyaru states:

SabrahmakAha suragaNAha sahadaityamartyAha

This means, even if all the gods, goddesses, deities, including Lord Brahma, demons, humans jointly attack me, they cannot even shake a finger of mine. There is no fear from this demon (pointing at the dead body of Ravana to Vibheeshana) and I am aware that he has a good heart and has imbibed good qualities.

The inanimate trees and flowers blossom at the dawn; inanimate bodies indulge in vivid and varied actions and reactions; a single medicine administered for a similar disease among different people may produce most different results; several insects are born in the urine of cows; food consumed by cows and other animals get converted into milk, blood and so many other things. Hair appears in certain parts of the body; animals, insects, flies etc. are born in soil as well as water. There are inexplicable, ambiguous and confusing mysteries in the world around us and we seldom try to take cognizance of the power behind these things.

All scriptures, Shrutis, Smrutis, Puranas and Vedas try to describe the attributes of the Lord. However, the attributes of Lord Hari are unlimited and beyond description.
