Pearls of Wisdom - 50
Sankhya system of philosophy (The Process as explained by Lord Kapila) : When the mind is perfectly purified by the practice of yoga, one should concentrate on the tip of his nose with half-closed eyes, and see the form of Supreme Personality of Godhead within. The Lord has a cheerful, lotus-like countenance, which is adorned with reddish eyes. He wears shining yellow cloth, on His chest is the curl of the white hair known as Srivatsa, and around His neck hangs the brilliant Kaustubha gem. Also around His neck is a garland of forest flowers, surrounded by humming bees, and He is further adorned with a pearl necklace, crown, and pair of armlets, bracelets and anklets. While standing upon the lotus of the devotee's heart, the Lord is most charming to look at, and His serene demeanor gladdens the eyes and souls of all those who are fortunate enough to behold Him. He is ever youthful, and always eager to bestow His blessings upon His devotees.
