Srimad-Bhagavatam: Canto 2 - Chapter 1 - Verse 15


Sanskrit:

ददर्श तत्राखिलसात्वतां पतिंश्रिय: पतिं यज्ञपतिं जगत्पतिम् ।सुनन्दनन्दप्रबलार्हणादिभि:स्वपार्षदाग्रै: परिसेवितं विभुम् ॥ १५ ॥

ITRANS:

dadarśa tatrākhila-sātvatāṁ patiṁśriyaḥ patiṁ yajña-patiṁ jagat-patimsunanda-nanda-prabalārhaṇādibhiḥsva-pārṣadāgraiḥ parisevitaṁ vibhum

Translation:

Lord Brahmā saw in the Vaikuṇṭha planets the Personality of Godhead, who is the Lord of the entire devotee community, the Lord of the goddess of fortune, the Lord of all sacrifices, and the Lord of the universe, and who is served by the foremost servitors like Nanda, Sunanda, Prabala and Arhaṇa, His immediate associates.

Purport:

When we speak of a king it is naturally understood that the king is accompanied by his confidential associates, like his secretary, private secretary, aide-de-camp, ministers and advisers. So also when we see the Lord we see Him with His different energies, associates, confidential servitors, etc. So the Supreme Lord, who is the leader of all living entities, the Lord of all devotee sects, the Lord of all opulences, the Lord of sacrifices and the enjoyer of everything in His entire creation, is not only the Supreme Person, but also is always surrounded by His immediate associates, all engaged in their loving transcendental service to Him.
