TRANSLATION
The Personality of Godhead, seen leaning favorably towards His loving servitors, His very sight intoxicating and attractive, appeared to be very much satisfied. He had a smiling face decorated with an enchanting reddish hue. He was dressed in yellow robes and wore earrings and a helmet on his head. He had four hands, and His chest was marked with the lines of the goddess of fortune.
In the Padma Purana, Uttara-khanda, there is a full description of the yoga-pitha or the particular place where the Lord is in audience to His eternal devotees. In that yoga-pitha, the personifications of religiousness, knowledge, opulence, and renunciation are all seated at the lotus feet of the Lord. The four Vedas, namely Rk, Sama, Yajus, and Atharva, are present there personally to advise the Lord. The sixteen energies headed by Canda are all present there. Canda and Kumuda are the two first doorkeepers, and at the middle door there are the doorkeepers named Bhadra and Subhadra, and at the last door there are Jaya and Vijaya. There are other doorkeepers also, named Kumuda, Kumudaksa, Pundarika, Vamana, Saṅkukarna, Sarvanetra, Sumukha, etc. The palace is well decorated and protected by the above-mentioned doorkeepers.
