तात्पर्य
Śrīla Śrīdhara Svāmī quotes from the Viṣṇu Purāṇa to show that the goddess Kānti mentioned here is actually Lakṣmī, the goddess of fortune:
varuṇa-prahitā cāsmai
mālām amlāna-paṅkajām
samudrābhe tathā vastre
nīle lakṣmīr ayacchata
“Sent by Varuna, Goddess Lakṣmī then presented Him with a garland of unfading lotuses and a pair of garments colored blue like the ocean.”
The great Bhāgavatam commentator Śrīla Śrīdhara Svāmī also quotes the following statement from Śrī Hari-vaṁśa, spoken by Goddess Lakṣmī to Lord Balarāma:
jātarūpa-mayaṁ caikaṁ
kuṇḍalaṁ vajra-bhūṣaṇam
ādi-padmaṁ ca padmākhyaṁ
divyaṁ śravaṇa-bhūṣaṇam
devemāṁ pratigṛhṇīṣva
paurāṇīṁ bhūṣaṇa-kriyām
“O Lord, please accept as divine ornaments for Your ears this single gold earring studded with diamonds and this primeval lotus called Padma. Kindly accept them, for this act of adornment is traditional.”
Śrīla Viśvanātha Cakravartī further points out that Goddess Lakṣmī is the consort of the Lord’s plenary expansion Saṅkarṣaṇa who belongs to the second vyūha.
