Rudra Vaisnava Sampradaya: Visnuswami |
Sridhara Swami's Commentary
Of annihilators Lord Krishna's vibhuti or divine, transcendental opulence
is mrtyah or death which annihilates all memories and remembrance. Of the
six transformations of the body that lead up to death His vibhuti is birth
the first. Of women Lord Krishna's vibhuti is kirti meaning excellent
reputation, srir means lustrous beauty, vak means articulate speech, smrtir
means good memory, medha means discerning intelligence, dhritih is patient
fortitude and ksama is causeless foregivness. These are the seven qualities
of a virtuous and by just possessing even a reflection of these qualities
one becomes praiseworthy.

| Sri Vaisnava Sampradaya: Ramanuja |
Ramanuja's Commentary
Lord Krishna reveals that of destroyers His vibhuti or divine,
transcendental opulence is mrtyuh or death, the great terminator of life in
all material existences. Of the eight transformations of physical existence
His vibhuti is the first known as birth. And His vibhuti is all of the
seven feminine perfections being kirtih or exalted reputation, srir or
lustrous beauty, vak or articulate speech, smrtih or excellent memory,
medha or discerning intelligence, dhrtih or fortitude and kasma or
forgiveness.

| Kumara Vaisnava Sampradaya: Nimbaditya |
Kesava Kasmiri's Commentary
Among annihilators Lord Krishna's vibhuti or divine, transcendental
opulence is myrtuh or all devouring death. Of the seven transformations of
the physical body His vibhuti is birth. Of the seven feminine qualities of
utmost virtue His vibhuti comprises them all as described.
