SRI BRAHMA-SAMHITA

Verse 47

yah karanarnava-jale bhajati sma yoga-
nidram ananta-jagad-anda-saroma-kupah
adhara-saktim avalambya param svamurtim
govindam adi purusam tam aham bhajami [47]

Translation: With infinite universes in the pores of His body, He assumes His supreme figure called Sesa, the reservoir of almighty power personified; He who reclines on the causal ocean, enjoying His trance of divine sleep—that Primeval Lord, Govinda, do I worship.

Purport: (Ananta, who takes the form of the couch of Maha-Vishnu, is being described.) The Infinite couch upon which Maha-Vishnu reclines—that infinite is the avatara who is by nature a servant of Krishna; He is known as Sesa.
