Do.: sakala kåmanå h∂na je råma bhagati rasa l∂na,
nåma suprema piyµua hrada tinhahu° kie mana m∂na.22.
Even those who are free from all desires and absorbed in the joy of devotion to
›r∂ Råma have thrown their heart as fish into the nectarine lake of supreme affection for
the Name. (22)

There are two aspects of Godóthe one unqualified and the other qualified. Both
these aspects are unspeakable, unfathomable, without beginning and without parallel. To
my mind, greater than both is the Name, that has established Its rule over both by Its
might. Friends should not take this as a bold assertion on the part of this servant; I record
my mindís own conviction, partiality and liking. The two aspects of Brahma (God) should
be recognized as akin to fire: the one (viz., the Absolute) represents fire which is latent
in wood; while the other (qualified Divinity) corresponds to that which is externally visible.
Though both are inaccessible by themselves, they are easily attainable through the
Name; therefore I have called the Name greater than Brahma and ›r∂ Råma both.
Brahma (God) is one, all-pervading and imperishable; He is all truth, consciousness and
a compact mass of joy. Even though such immutable Lord is present in every heart, all
beings in this world are nonetheless miserable and unhappy. Through the practice of the
Name preceded by Its true appraisement, however, the same Brahma reveals Itself even
as the value of a jewel is revealed by its correct knowledge. (1ó4)
