external and marginal energies are said only as a function of the particular conditions, which do not exist for the original internal energy. And the conditions governing external energy can not affect marginal energy, or vice versa. Whoever can understand the complex mechanisms of all these energies of the Sovereign Lord can no longer remain a victim of a mediocre knowledge and confine himself to impersonal empiricism.

The Supreme Lord, Kṛiṣhṇa, finds his happiness through six kinds of main emanations. There is first of all its manifestations, say prābhavas and vaibhavas.

From the Lord proceed first two categories of emanations, named prābhavas and vaibhavas. The forms prābhavas enjoy the power of Kṛiṣhṇa, when those called vaibhavas show only partial power. The manifestation of the prabhavas forms is related to the powers of the Lord, those of the vaibhavas forms to its glories. Again, the all-powerful forms of prabhavas are divided into two categories, whether temporary or eternal.

The Avatars are also divided into two categories: the plenary emanations of the Lord and those with specific powers. Finally, it appears in two forms having respectively the characteristics of childhood and youth prime. Lord Krishna is the one who is always adorned with a wonderful black hair. This particular characteristic of the Supreme Lord also applies to Baladeva, his first full emanation, so that even after many years, both of them retain the appearance of sixteen-year-olds (16 years old). Although He is the oldest of all beings, He always keeps the juvenile freshness of a young boy. This is the nature of the eternal spiritual body of Krishna, God, the Supreme Person.

There are therefore six forms called vilās. The two categories of Avatars, those with powers and the plenary emanations, also fit among the prābhavas and vaibhavas manifestations. As for K enfanceiṣhṇa's childhood and early youth, they represent two particular manifestations of the Supreme Lord; for it is rather in his features of a 16-year-old that there is the permanent manifestation of his eternal form, which is always worshiped as the original Lord, Kṛiṣhṇa.

The Lord Kṛiṣhṇa, who remains eternally a youth of 16 years of appearance, is the original Lord, source of all Avatars. It is in order to establish its supremacy throughout the galaxy that it manifests itself in these six categories of forms. These six general divisions include an infinite variety of forms. But although they are multiple, they are one; no difference separates them.

The Supreme Lord reveals himself according to six kinds of manifestations:

1) prābhava, 2) vaibhava, 3) śaktyāveśa, 4) aṁśādeśa, 5) bālya 6) paugaṇḍa. The Supreme Lord, Kṛiṣhṇa, with the eternal young form, fulfills his divine desires thanks to the entertainments that He conceives in these six categories of manifestations. These are further divided into an infinite variety of divine forms. Living beings (us) are
