The history of ParamAtma is auspicious. His history has the greatness of

purifying all 14 lOka-s. By listening to His history or chanting His

history (or praise) a devotee earns acquires merit (pUNya). ParamAtma

destroys the sins which come in the way of His devotees in obtaining

sAdhana and blesses them. ParamAtma has been praised by the

knowledgeable Brahma and other dEvata-s.

 

ParamAtma has a brilliant color body similar to a Lily flower petal. He

is thus known as “neelameghashyAma” He has limitless guNa-s and guNa

rUpa-s. Thus called ‘nissIma ‘.

 

In the previous chAxuSha manvaMtara, during amR^itamaMthana i.e.

churning of the sea, ParamAtma took the female form of MOhini to deny

the nectar to the daitya-s. Later, R^idra requested ParamAtma to show

him the same rUpa once again. Paramatma obliged with reluctance and

seduced him too. Afterwards, R^idra regretted his weakness and ParamAtma

pardoned R^idra.

 

Thus in the three worlds there is no one who can win over Hissupernatural powers. He is the binder as well as the pardoner.
