Text 18
adhvaryuṇātta-haviṣā
yajamāno viśāmpate
dhiyā viśuddhayā dadhyau
tathā prādurabhūd dhariḥ
adhvaryuṇā — with the Yajur Veda; ātta — taking; haviṣā — with clarified butter; yajamānaḥ — King Dakṣa; viśām-pate — O Vidura; dhiyā — in meditation; viśuddhayā — sanctified; dadhyau — offered; tathā — immediately; prāduḥ — manifest; abhūt — became; hariḥ — Hari, the Lord.
The great sage Maitreya said to Vidura: My dear Vidura, as soon as King Dakṣa offered the clarified butter with Yajur Veda mantras in sanctified meditation, Lord Viṣṇu appeared there in His original form as Nārāyaṇa.
Lord Viṣṇu is all-pervading. Any devotee who, in sanctified meditation, following the regulative principles, chants the required mantras in service and in a devotional mood can see Viṣṇu. It is said in the Brahma-saṁhitā that a devotee whose eyes are anointed with the ointment of love of Godhead can see the Supreme Personality of Godhead always within his heart. Lord Śyāmasundara is so kind to His devotee.
