অপার ঐশ্বর্য কৃষ্ণের - নাহিক গণন ।
শাখা-চন্দ্র-ন্যায়ে করি দিগ্দরশন ॥" ৩০ ॥
apara aisvarya krsnera-nahika ganana
sakha-candra-nyaye kari dig-darasana
apara-unlimited; aisvarya-opulence; krsnera-of Lord Krsna; nahika ganana-there is no estimation; sakha-candra-nyaye-according to the logic of seeing the moon through the branches of a tree; kari-I make; dik-darasana-an indication only.
"No one can estimate the opulence of Krsna. That is unlimited. However, just as one sees the moon through the branches of a tree, I wish to give a little indication."
First a child is shown the branches of a tree, and then he is shown the moon through the branches. This is called sakha-candra-nyaya. The idea is that first one must be given a simpler example. Then the more difficult background is explained.
