The demon was enraged when his trident was cut to pieces by the discus of the Personality of Godhead. He therefore advanced toward the Lord and, roaring aloud, struck his hard fist against the Lord’s broad chest, which bore the mark of Śrīvatsa. Then he went out of sight.
ÅšrÄ«vatsa is a curl of white hair on the chest of the Lord which is a special sign of His being the Supreme Personality of Godhead. In Vaikuṇá¹haloka or in Goloka Vá¹›ndÄvana, the inhabitants are exactly of the same form as the Personality of Godhead, but by this ÅšrÄ«vatsa mark on the chest of the Lord He is distinguished from all others.
