Chathuraika nidhana Seema chapalaapaanga chataa mantharam
Lavanyamruthaveechi laalitha drusam Lakshmi kataksha dhrutam
Kalindi pulinaanangana pranayanath kaamaavathaaraankuram
Balam neelamamivayam madhurima swaaraajya maaraadhnumaha.
Leela Shukà exults in describing the glorious attributes of his darling Krishna in every sloka of Krishna Karnamruta. Spellbound at the celestial beauty of child Krishna, in his imagination, he attempts to portray the physical beauty of Balakrishna. Is Krishna an ordinary boy moving about the Vraja bhoomi or Gokulam? It is sheer ignorance or avidya to consider Him thus. He may create an illusion or Maya in the minds of others. It is only his ardent devotees, those who have fixed Him in their hearts that can see through his Maya and realize Him. In the earlier sloka the poet has recognized young Krishna as none other than the Supreme Brahman. It is this Supreme Reality that one has to worship in order to free himself from the cycle of Samsara and the inevitable birth and death! How to worship the Brahman that has no form? The Upanishads describe the Supreme Brahman in various ways.” Asabda masparsya marupa mavyayam.” It has no sound, no touch, no form and no decay. To the poet there is no difficulty what so ever. To him Krishna is the very embodiment of Parabrahman and it is his=_= duty to worship him as a Sadhaka.
Now, having decided to continue his upasana of the Brahman, Leela Shuka attempts to describe the form of Krishna as he visualizes the Lord in his mind's eye. Krishna’s beautiful eyes are indescribable and unparalled. They are extremely mobile! Their looks are magnetic and have the effect of lightning! The radiance of His eyes is remarkable! He is moving about the sand dunes of the Yamuna with the color of blue diamond creating voluptuous feelings in others! His spouse Sri Devi or Goddess Lakshmi looks at Him with love! Krishna's personality and ethereal beauty as a boy is so enchanting that it creates belief in all who see Him.
“ Lakhmi kataakshadhrutam” means one who has the support and grace of Goddess Lakshmi.
“ Kaamaavathaaraankuram” means the cause for arrival of Manmatha, God of Love
The poet is obsessed with Lord Krishna in blue color and His arresting beauty!
