Theme Analysis
The philosophical essence of this category establishes that the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Lord Krsna, performs activities that are completely uncommon and beyond the capacity of any ordinary living being. Srila Prabhupada explains that when the Lord descends, He is not bound by the laws of material nature. He effortlessly exhibits uncommonly wonderful power, such as Lord Ramacandra making stones float on the ocean or a seven-year-old Krsna lifting Govardhana Hill. While pure devotees hear of these uncommon pastimes and become ecstatic, fools, asuras, and mundane scientists dismiss them as mythology. The innumerable forms, colors, and attributes of the Lord—such as Syamasundara and Gaurasundara—are profound mysteries that bewilder even great personalities like Brahma, yet they bring unlimited satisfaction to the devotees who accept the Lord as He is.
- Transcendentally Wonderful: The Supreme Lord's activities are never common or mundane. His pastimes, such as lifting mountains and floating stones, demonstrate His uncommonly wonderful power.
- The Bewilderment of Fools: Due to a poor fund of knowledge, atheistic scientists and demons mistake the Lord's uncommon acts for mythology, trying to measure the infinite with their finite senses.
- Ecstasy of the Devotees: For the pure devotees, hearing the uncommon activities and perceiving the uncommon beauty of the Lord is a source of supreme jubilance and transcendental ecstasy.
- Mysterious Attributes: The diverse forms, colors, and potencies of the Lord—appearing differently to pure devotees and dry speculators—remain profound mysteries that transcend ordinary material logic.

The following 17 pages are in this category, out of 17 total.
T
- The activities of the Lord are not common; they are all transcendentally wonderful and not able to be performed by any other living being
- The activities of the Supreme Personality of Godhead in His various forms and incarnations are always uncommon and wonderful
- The asuras cannot recognize the existence of the Lord, although there are vivid descriptions of the Lord in the revealed scriptures, although the Lord incarnates and exhibits His uncommon strength and energy
- The innumerable forms of the Lord, such as Syamasundara, Narayana, Rama and Gaurasundara; the colors of these forms (white, red, yellow, cloudlike syama and others) - these and innumerable other uncommon acts and attributes are all mysteries
- The Lord descends by His internal energy without any obligation to the laws of material nature, and thus His activities are also uncommon
- The Lord's activities are uncommon. For example, when He appeared as Lord Ramacandra, He performed uncommon activities like bridging the ocean. Similarly, when Lord Krsna appeared He raised the Govardhana Hill when He was only seven years of age
- The Lord's uncommon features, uncommon activities and uncommon beauty can be perceived even by an ordinary man
- The uncommon features symptomatic of the incarnation of Godhead can bewilder even the mind of Brahma
W
- When the pure devotee, the liberated person, hears about these uncommon activities of the Lord, he immediately becomes ecstatic and exhibits the symptoms of chanting, dancing, and crying very loudly and jubilantly
- When they (the demigods) saw the uncommon prowess of the Lord in keeping the earth on the surface of the water, they showered flowers on Him in appreciation of His transcendental activity
