एको नैकः सवः कः किं यत् तत्पदमनुत्तमम्। लोकबन्धुर्लोकनाथो माधवो भक्तवत्सलः॥७८॥

He is ēkaḥ – the One without a second, and yet naikaḥ – manifesting as the many; He is the essence of all hymns and praise (stavaḥ), the mystery behind the questions of "Who?" and "What?" (kaḥ, kiṃ), and ultimately that supreme, unsurpassable goal – tat padaṃ anuttamam – the highest abode beyond all duality. He is lōkabandhuḥ – the true friend and well-wisher of the world, lōkanāthaḥ – the sovereign Lord of all realms, mādhavaḥ – the consort of Lakshmi and the master of all knowledge, and bhaktavatsalaḥ – deeply affectionate toward His devotees, ever responding to their love with compassion and grace.
