--Srimad BhAgavatam : 10.3.1-4 ,8-10

 

(Meaning): " SrI Suka said: Now came the most

auspicious and favorable time , when the star

RohiNi was in ascendanance and all the other stars

were in a beneficient disposition . (1)

 

Peaceful silence reigned in all the quarters .

The stars shone clear in the sky. All the villages ,

cowherd settlements and mining quarries saw

the dawn of a prosperous era.(2)

 

The rivers flowed with pellucid water , the tanks

were full of lotus blossoms.The woodlands were

resonant with the chirping of fluttering birds and

the buzzing of the bees from the trees and

creepers heavy-laden with flowers. (3)

 

Soft blew the breeze, dust-free and fragrant

and gently flowed the fires in the sacrificial

hearths of the holy.(4)

 

At such a time , in the pitch darkness of

the midnight , MahA VishNu , the resident

in the hearts of all, was born of the divinely

beautiful Devaki , like the Full Moon rising on

the eastern horizon .(8)

 

Lotus-eyed , four armed , sporting the conch ,

mace and other weapons; with the luminous

Srivatsa mark on the chest and the shining

Kaustubha on the neck; wearing a yellow cloth;

possessed of the majesty and grace of a heavy

rain cloud ; with locks gleaming with the lustre

of the diadem and the ear-rings studded with

precious stones; bedecked with splenderous

ornamaments like bracelets , armlets and waist

girdle --such was the luminous form of

THE UNIQUE CHILD that greeted

VasudevA's vision " ( 9-10)
