64 Qualities of Lord Śrī Krishna!*

*54. SAC-CID-ĀNANDA-VIGRAHA*

Kṛṣna's transcendental body is eternal, full of knowledge and bliss.

_Sat_ means ever-existing for all time and in all places; in other words, all-pervading in time and space.

_Cit_ means full of knowledge. Kṛṣna has nothing to learn from anyone. He is independently full of all knowledge.

Ānanda means the reservoir of all pleasure. The impersonalists are seeking to merge into the Brahman effulgence of eternity and knowledge, but the major portion of the absolute pleasure which is in Kṛṣna is avoided by them.

One can enjoy the transcendental blissfulness of merging into the Brahman effulgence after being freed from the contamination of material illusion, false identification, attachment, detachment and material absorption. These are the preliminary qualifications of a person who can realize _Brahman_.

It is stated in _Bhagavad-gitā_ that one has to become full of joyfulness; that joyfulness can be actually achieved only when one comes into contact with Kṛṣna.

Kṛṣna consciousness is so complete that it includes the transcendental pleasure derived from impersonal or _Brahman_ realization. Even the impersonalist will become attracted to the personal form of Kṛṣna, known as Shyāmasundara.
