SUMMARY: Unable to imagine the beginning, middle or end for the good qualities of the Lord of this Universe, including the Earth, Goddess Lakshmi, who is the favoring deity of Vedas, keeps wondering how she could become his consort. She opines that being an ocean of kindness, the Lord has graced her by making her to be his wife like an Emperor dining in a beggar’s house.

Goddess Lakshmi is wondering about the qualities of Lord Vishnu. She finds them unfathomable, infinite and immeasurable. It is difficult to imagine an Emperor agreeing and dining in a beggar’s house. Similarly, Lord Vishnu has favored Goddess Lakshmi by accepting her as his wife, even though she is in no way commensurate with his qualities or greatness. It may be recalled that Lord Krishna, who was on a peace-making mission, went to Hastinavati but took shelter in Vidura’s house and shared food with him.

SUMMARY: The Knowledgeable should take note of: Imagining that all the qualities that Goddess Lakshmi Devi possesses to be equal to a grass and they are all present in human beings and seeing that there is no comparison between all those qualities and the qualities that Lord Vishnu possesses, one must realize the difference between Lord Hari and Goddess Lakshmi Devi.  If the Mother of Lord Brahma, Sri Lakshmi Devi, is unable to know the depth and intensity of the qualities of Lord Hari, what should be said of the status of human beings?

“Devakee” refers to Goddess Lakshmi. “Kam” means Ananda or pleasure and since Goddess Lakshmi gets pleasure from Sri Hari, she is known as Devaki. We can find the usage of “Devaki” for Lakshmi in Yamaka Bharata and Dwadashastotra too.

“Virinchana janani” means the mother Lord Brahma, the Abhimani Devata or the favoring deity of Mahattattva or the Principles of Universe. She is the incognito favorite deity of the Principles of Universe and she has a mystic form.

In his “Sri Madhwavijaya” Seventh Sarga, Sri Narayana Panditacharyaru says:

ನ ರಮಾ(s)ಪಿ ಪದಾಂಗುಲೀಲಸನ್ನಖಧೂರಾಜದನಂತ ಸದ್ಗುಣಾನ್|

ಗಣಯೇದ್ಗಣಯಂತ್ಯನಾರತಂ ಪರಮಾನ್ ಕೋ(s)ಸ್ಯ ಪರೋ ಗುಣಾನ್||46||

न रमाsपि पदान्गुलीलसन्नखधूराजदनन्त सद्गुणान्।

गणयॆद्गणयन्त्यनारतं परमान् कॊsस्य परॊ गुणान्॥४६॥

Even if Sri Rama Devi starts counting the infinite virtues/attributes or qualities of the various activities that the nails of the fingers in the feet of Lord Vishnu, she cannot complete the numbering; such being the case, who else can describe his virtues?
