Māgha Saptamī Śukla Pakṣa Śubha Kṣaṇa Kṣaṇa Bhūri

In the month of Māgha, on the śuklā saptamī, at an auspicious moment, glorious and graceful Lord Advaita was manifest in this world. At that moment Kali-yuga’s arrogant pride was cast far away.

All the people ran to Kuvera Paṇḍita’s home. As they gazed at the newborn child, the hairs on their bodies stood erect with joy. “Jaya! Jaya!”, they exclaimed.

The poets sang of the child’s great glories. They were wild with bliss. How many glorious melodies did the musicians play on their instruments?

“Thaitā taka taka thona!”, the dancing of the dancers declared. In this way Narahari dāsa describes something of Lord Advaita’s glorious birth-pastimes.
