Others also, the inhabitants of planets known as Kimpuruṣa-loka, made the demon Maya into a calf, and they milked out mystic powers by which one can disappear immediately from another’s vision and appear again in a different form.
It is said that the inhabitants of Kimpuruá¹£a-loka can perform many wonderful mystic demonstrations. In other words, they can exhibit as many wonderful things as one can imagine. The inhabitants of this planet can do whatever they like, or whatever they imagine. Such powers are also mystic powers. The possession of such mystic power is called Ä«Å›itÄ. The demons generally learn such mystic powers by the practice of yoga. In the DaÅ›ama-skandha (Tenth Canto) of ÅšrÄ«mad-BhÄgavatam, there is a vivid description of how the demons appear before Kṛṣṇa in various wonderful forms. For instance, BakÄsura appeared before Kṛṣṇa and His cowherd boyfriends as a gigantic crane. While present on this planet, Lord Kṛṣṇa had to fight with many demons who could exhibit the wonderful mystic powers of Kimpuruá¹£a-loka. Although the inhabitants of Kimpuruá¹£a-loka are naturally endowed with such powers, one can attain these powers on this planet by performing different yogic practices.
