we were seeing the usage of word "GLARE" by Srila Prabhupada. There were things like GLARES of Brahamjyoti/ illusory energy/ Sun.


which made us ask question --

"How are dazzlement of Vibhuti of Krsna (which in node 15326 are referred as nice to see vibhutis and then realize how we are seeing an echo of KRSNA.) and dazzlement of illusory energy different. ?

we try to find Krsna in happiness in this wolrd, may be at hear we are still averse to his personal form.

SB 8.14.10 - There are many varieties of philosophers trying to search for the ultimate cause under different names and forms, but they are unable to find the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Kṛṣṇa, who explains in Bhagavad-gītā that He is the origin of everything and the cause of all causes (ahaṁ sarvasya prabhavaḥ). This inability is due to the illusory energy of the Supreme Lord. Devotees, therefore, accept the Supreme Personality of Godhead as He is and remain happy simply by chanting the glories of the Lord.


HpS - A pure devotee sees that KRSNA, shyamasundara is the source of the Lion, Ocean, Sun, like a mother sees a painting done by her grown up son become a respected artist for a church as representing her son.

It can be more intense than the physical form of her son.

On the other hand, as you say, maybe we are willing to appreciate the energetic incarnation of Krsna but not surrender more to the personal form of Krsna.


The glare of the material energy stimulates our lust for sex, food, taste, honor, rational form. The vibhutimat manifestations stimulate, glare, about Krsna's form which we can serve. not exploit. OK?.
