"To the Supreme Lord, whose form is the embodiment of eternal existence, knowledge, and bliss, whose shark-shaped earrings are swinging to and fro, who is beautifully shining in the divine realm of Gokula, who I (due to the offense of breaking the pot of yogurt that His mother was churning into butter and then stealing the butter that was kept hanging from a swing) is quickly running from the wooden grinding mortar in fear of mother Yasoda, but who has been caught from behind by her who ran after Him with greater speed -- to that Supreme Lord, Sri Damodara, I offer my humble obeisances."
(Sri Damodarastakam, Verse 1)
(*Note: Sri Sri Radha Damodara traveled across the U.S. by bus with Vishnujana Swami in the 1970's.)
