Only one lord pervades all

But appears to everyone as distinctly separate accofding to his discernment.35.

That inconceivable Lord pervades all

And all the beings beg from him according to their writ

He, who hath comprehended the Lord as One,

Only he hath realized the Supreme Essence.36.

That One Lord hath a hath a Unique Beauty and Form

And he Himself is somewhere a king and somewhere a pauper

He hath involved all through various means

But he Himself is separate from all and none could know His mystey.37.

He hath created all in separate forms

And He Himself destroys all

He doth not take any blame on His own Head

And fixes the responsibility of vicious acts on others.38.

Now begins the description of the first Machh Incarnation

CHAUPAI

Once there was born a demon named Shankhasura

Who, in many ways, distressed the world

Then the Lord manifested Himself as Machh (Fish) incarnation,

Who repeated His Own name Himself.39.

At first he Lord manifested Himself as small fish,

And shook the ocean violenty

Then He enlarged his body,

Seeing which Shankhasura got greatly enraged.40.
