Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. Akrura, having set off in his quick travelling-car, proceeded to visit Krishna at the pastures of Nanda, and, as he went along, he congratulated himself on his superior good fortune, in having an opportunity of beholding a descended portion of the deity. Now, thought he, has my life borne fruit, my night is followed by the dawn of day: since I shall see the countenance of Vishnu, whose eyes are like the expanded leaf of the lotos. I shall behold that lotos-eyed aspect of Vishnu, which, when seen only in imagination, takes away the sins of men.
