এত বড বিশ্বম্ভর-শক্তির মহিমাত্রি ভুবনে লঙ্ঘিতে না পারে কেহ সীমা ॥ ৭ ॥
एत बड विश्वम्भर-शक्तिर महिमात्रि भुवने लङ्घिते ना पारे केह सीमा ॥ ७ ॥
eta baḍa viśvambhara-śaktira mahimātri bhuvane laṅghite nā pāre keha sīmā || 7 ||
eta bada visvambhara-saktira mahimatri bhuvane langhite na pare keha sima (7)

(7) The glories of Viśvambhara’s prowess were so great that no one in the three worlds knew their limits.
Commentary: Gauḍīya-bhāṣya by Śrīla Bhaktisiddhānta Sarasvatī Ṭhākura:
The glories of Viśvambhara’s prowess were unique. Since human knowledge is based on the three modes of material nature, it is unable to grasp transcendental concepts.
