In that supreme world, a realm of unparalleled splendor, the air is filled with singing, dancing, and music. Joyous and intoxicated with bliss, the Yakshas, Vidyadharas, Siddhas, Gandharvas, and groups of Apsarases gather in celebration. Assemblies of gods and sages grace this place, and their presence makes the world shine with divine brilliance. Here, the wise who have attained great merit enjoy pleasures beyond imagination. Near the great banyan tree on the southern shore of the ocean, those fortunate souls who have beheld the blessed Krishna, lotus-eyed and lord of the world, reside. They play together with the Apsarases, their radiance enduring as long as the sky, moon, and stars themselves. Shining like refined gold, they are free from old age and death, untouched by suffering, and devoid of the fatigue of desire. Four-armed and of immense strength, they are adorned with garlands of forest flowers. These exalted beings bear the emblem of Śrīvatsa and hold the conch, discus, and mace. Some are dark as blue lotuses, others gleam like gold; some resemble emeralds or beryls, while others shine like diamonds. Many are dark-complexioned and wear earrings, each radiating unique beauty. O best of twice-born, no world of any other god shines as brightly as Hari’s world, which is filled with every wonder. In this realm, O Brāhmaṇas, there is neither return nor departure; by the power of the divine Lord, souls remain there until the dissolution of creation itself. They wander through the divine city, proud of their beauty and youth, and gaze upon Krishna, Rama, and Subhadrā—the Supreme Person. At the heart of Hari’s city stands a magnificent temple, adorned with countless jewels and radiant like refined gold, its brilliance rivaling the youthful sun. Hundreds of thousands of flags decorate its vast expanse, which stretches for tens of yojanas and is encircled by golden ramparts. Banners of various colors, beautifully crafted and delightful to behold, flutter in the breeze, shining like the autumn moon among the stars. The temple boasts four wide gates, each guarded by sentinels, and is connected to seven grand and enchanting cities. The first city is golden, the second adorned with emeralds, the third is sapphire, and the fourth built of great blue stone. The fifth city dazzles with ruby, the sixth is made of diamond, and the seventh shines with beryl. Within this wondrous mansion, pillars fashioned from various gems, gold, and coral sprouts add to the marvel. Perfected beings illuminate the ten directions, much like the moon shining among stars on a full-moon night. There, Bhagavān Janārdana sits enthroned with Lakṣmī, clad in yellow garments, dark-hued and marked with Śrīvatsa. Hari holds the blazing Sudarśana discus in his right hand, fierce and master of all weapons, radiant with brilliance. Keśava, O best of sages, takes up with his left hand a necklace shining like jasmine, the moon, and milk. The sound of his conch, Pāñcajanya, adorned with a thousand spirals, shakes the entire world. That conch is fierce, the destroyer of evil-doers, annihilator of demons and titans, blazing like tongues of fire and unbearable even for the gods. Hari also holds the Kaumodakī mace in his right hand and his bow Śārṅga in his left, shining with the brilliance of the sun, with quivers and arrows radiant as the sun, wreathed in blazing flames. With these, he destroys the worlds of gods, both moving and unmoving. He brings joy to all and is resplendent, expert in all scriptures, the guru of all worlds, the god revered by all other gods. The lord of gods possesses a thousand heads, feet, eyes, limbs, and mighty arms, and is called the Thousand-named. Seated upon a throne, his eyes wide as lotus petals and shining like lightning, he is the Lord and teacher of the universe. Surrounding him are hosts of gods and siddhas, bands of gandharvas and apsarases, yakṣas, vidyādharas, nāgas, sages, siddhas, and cāraṇas. Praised by suparṇas, demons, titans, rākṣasas, guhyakas, kinnaras, and other divine hosts, he shines in splendid glory. Within this abode dwell Fame, Wisdom, Intelligence, Sarasvatī, Understanding, Thought, Patience, the embodiment of Success, and Radiance. Also present are Gāyatrī, Sāvitrī, Maṅgalā—the source of all auspiciousness—Splendor, Thought, Beauty, and Nārāyaṇī herself. Śraddhā, the goddess Kauśikī, Lightning, Saudāminī, Sleep, Night, Māyā, and other celestial women reside there as well. All these are established in the abode of Vāsudeva; nothing more need be said, for everything finds its place there. Ghṛtācī, Menakā, Rambhā, Sahajanyā, Tilottamā, Urvaśī, Nimlocā, and others, both small and great, are present. Mandodarī, the fortunate one, Viśvācī, broad-faced, Bhadrāṅgī, Citrasenā, Pramlocā—all of enchanting beauty—are there. The sage-bewildering Rāmā, Candramadhyā of auspicious face, Sukeśī, Nīlakeśā, and Manmathadīpinī are also present. Alambuṣā, Miśrakeśī, Muñjikasthalā, Kratusthalā, the beautiful-limbed Pūrvacitti, and others grace this realm. Parāvatī of great form, Śaśilekhā of auspicious face, those who move like swans, and those who walk like intoxicated elephants are seen. Bimbauṣṭhī, Navagarbhā, and other renowned celestial women, as well as countless apsarases, proud of their beauty and youth, fill this divine abode. Such is the wondrous world of Hari, where every glory, joy, and marvel resides eternally.
