Īśānukathā· The Lord and His devoteesThe Goddess of Fortune Worships His Feet
“The goddess of fortune herself, ruler of the entire universe, worships His feet. And the master of the goddess of fortune does not deserve the paraphernalia of a mortal king?
What the purport teaches
- The goddess of fortune herself worships Kṛṣṇa’s feet.
- Although she rules the entire universe, Kṛṣṇa is her master.
- The question exposes the absurdity of denying Him a mortal king’s paraphernalia. His position is far above such royal honors.
