অচিন্ত্য আবেশ সেই বুঝন না যায যখন যে হয, সেই অপূর্ব দেখায ॥ ৯৫ ॥

अचिन्त्य आवेश सेइ बुझन ना याय यखन ये हय, सेइ अपूर्व देखाय ॥ ९५ ॥

acintya āveśa sei bujhana nā yāya yakhana ye haya, sei apūrva dekhāya || 95 ||

acintya avesa sei bujhana na yaya yakhana ye haya, sei apurva dekhaya (95)

(95) No one could understand the inconceivable moods of the Lord. Whatever mood He assumed appeared most enchanting.

Commentary: Gauḍīya-bhāṣya by Śrīla Bhaktisiddhānta Sarasvatī Ṭhākura:

Whatever mood the Lord manifested was never seen before, so it appeared most wonderful. These moods were actually situated in the realm beyond material thought and were therefore incomprehensible to ordinary people.
