## Synonyms
*apāra*—unlimited; *aiśvarya*—opulence; *kṛṣṇera*—of Lord Kṛṣṇa; *nāhika* *gaṇana*—there is no estimation; *śākhā*-*candra*-*nyāye*—according to the logic of seeing the moon through the branches of a tree; *kari*—I make; *dik*-*daraśana*—an indication only.
## Translation
**"No one can estimate the opulence of Kṛṣṇa. That is unlimited. However, just as one sees the moon through the branches of a tree, I wish to give a little indication."**
## Purport
First a child is shown the branches of a tree, and then he is shown the moon through the branches. This is called *śākhā-candra-nyāya.* The idea is that first one must be given a simpler example. Then the more difficult background is explained.
