Translation (Visvanatha Cakravarti Thakura)

The powerful Indra, along with the Maruts, Ādityas, Vasus, Aśvinīs, Ṛbhus, Aṅgirās, Rudras, Viśvedevas, Sādhyas, Gandharvas, Apsarās, Nāgas, Siddhas, Cāraṇas, Guhyakas, the great sages and forefathers and the Vidyādharas and Kinnaras, arrived at the city of Dvārakā, hoping to see Lord Kṛṣṇa. By his form, Kṛṣṇa, the Supreme Lord, enchanted all human beings, spread his own fame throughout the worlds, and destroyed all contamination within the universe. They desired to see Kṛṣṇa by whose body he attracted all men. This indicates that his body is non-different from himself, unlike the jīva. It is said deha-dehi-vibhāgaś ca neśvare vidyate kvacit: there is no difference in the Lord between his body and himself. (Kūrma Purānā) [Note: It is from Kūrma Pūrāṇa according to Laghu-bhāgavatamṛta and from Mahā-varāha Purāṇa according to Bhagavat Sandarbha.]

Purport

The Personality of Godhead descends within the material world to assist the demigods in the cosmic management; thus the demigods can normally see such forms of the Lord as Upendra. However, here it is indicated that although accustomed to seeing various Viṣṇu expansions of the Lord, the demigods were specifically eager to see the most beautiful form of the Lord as Kṛṣṇa. Deha-dehi-vibhāgaś ca neśvare vidyate kvacit: there is no distinction between the Supreme Lord and His personal body. The jīva soul is different from his body, but the beautiful, transcendental form of the Lord is identical with the Lord in all respects.
