Māghe Śuklā Tithi Saptamīte Ati
Māyūra-rāga
On the śuklā saptamī of the month of Māgha the great ocean of bliss overflowed. At that moment, when all the stars were auspicious, Lord Advaitacandra descended to this world and was born from Nābhā-devī’s womb.
Overjoyed, Kuvera Pandita gave many different gifts to the poor brāhmaṇas. Slowly, slowly he approached the maternity-room. Gazing at his son’s face, he felt his heart filled with cooling bliss.
The people of Navadvīpa all ran there. Amongst themselves they each declared, “Never have I seen any child like this. At this auspicious moment Kuvera Paṇḍita has attained a jewel of a son.”
The demigods showered flowers. Never had anyone seen any glory like the infant Lord Advaitacandra’s. His glory has no peer. The whole world was filled with sounds of, “Jaya! Jaya!” Ghanaśyāma dāsa describes these auspicious pastimes.
