Text

Having appeared on this earth the Lord enjoyed among the best of women by expanding himself through his yoga-mÄyÄ, according to his nature.

Purport

By his yoga-maya (sva-mayaya) he resided with each of his many wives by expanding his form into many. Thus according to his nature (yatha prakrtah) the Lord enjoys. The causes of the Lord’s enjoyment, the desire to enjoy and the activities of enjoyment are all beyond the material gunas because he is not material.
