Srimad-Bhagavatam: Canto 11 - Chapter 1 - Verse 30


Sanskrit:

मद्विभूतीरभिध्यायन् श्रीवत्सास्‍त्रविभूषिता: ।ध्वजातपत्रव्यजनै: स भवेदपराजित: ॥ ३० ॥

ITRANS:

mad-vibhūtīr abhidhyāyanśrīvatsāstra-vibhūṣitāḥdhvajātapatra-vyajanaiḥsa bhaved aparājitaḥ

Translation:

My devotee becomes unconquerable by meditating on My opulent incarnations, which are decorated with Śrīvatsa and various weapons and are endowed with imperial paraphernalia such as flags, ornamental umbrellas and fans.

Purport:

The imperial paraphernalia of the Lord’s opulent incarnations indicates His omnipotency, and the devotees become unconquerable by meditating on the Lord’s powerful, royally equipped incarnations. As stated by Bilvamaṅgala Ṭhākura in Kṛṣṇa-karṇāmṛta, verse 107: “My dear Lord, if we develop unflinching devotional service unto You, then automatically Your transcendental, youthful form is revealed to us. Thus liberation herself waits with folded hands to serve us, and the ultimate goals of religiosity, economic development and sense gratification patiently wait to render service to us.”
