The first fifty-five of the qualities denoting Kṛṣṇa, as well as qualities such as the ability to give yoga siddhis, are also present in the perfected devotees.

It is described that Kṛṣṇa, the enemy of Kaṁsa, has sixty-four transcendental qualities, and all of the ever-liberated souls who accompany the Lord have the first fifty-five of the qualities, without any doubt.
