mahäkrama – Lord Kåñëa cleverly killed the demon Kälayavana by
kicking the sleeping King Mucukunda; mahäkarmä – His
transcendental activities, such as killing Kälayavana, are glorious,
praiseworthy, worshipable and wonderful; mahäteja – His
transcendental strength remains undefeated; mahoraga – He remains
eternally situated within the hearts of His pure devotees, although He
occasionally blesses them by appearing before them; mahäkratu – if
one offers even a tulasé leaf at Lord Kåñëa’s lotus feet with sincere
devotion, that religious activity is greater than performing
innumerable Vedic rituals, for Kåñëa becomes controlled by devotees
who worship Him in this way; mahäyajvä – His devotees are by far
the best performers of sacrifice; mahäyajïa – He personally prefers
the chanting of His holy names as the best of sacrifices; mahähavi –
He considers the offering of obeisances by bowing down with
devotion to be the best kind of offering oblations.
