    Seeing the whipping stick in His

    mother's hand, He is crying and

    rubbing His eyes again and again

    with His two lotus hands. His eyes are

    filled with fear, and the necklace of

    pearls around His neck, which is

    marked with three lines like a

    conchshell, is shaking because of Hisquick breathing due to crying. To this

    Supreme Lord, Sri Damodara, whose

    belly is bound not with ropes but with

    His mother's pure love, I offer my

    humble obeisances.
