604. Sreemataam-varah: -The best among those who have glory-in-life, (Sree), is

Narayana. Taittireeya Braahmana says, " The Rig, Yajus and Saaman are the

imperishable wealth of the wise " , so Sree has been interpreted here to mean the

Vedas. Lord Narayana is the One who is the Best among those who know the

`Books'; He being the very Infinite Reality that is the one theme of all the

Vedas. Also Varah can mean " One Who blesses " and thus the term under discussion

yields the meaning, " Vishnu, Who is the Lord That blesses all great students of

the Vedas. "
