uddīpanatvam eva syād bhūṣaṇādes tu kevalam ||306||
The form itself of Kṛṣṇa is the ālambana. His ornaments, age and other items act only as uddīpanas.

Kṛṣṇa is the reservoir of all transcendental pleasure. Therefore, the impetuses to love of Kṛṣṇa, although seemingly different, are not actually distinct from Kṛṣṇa Himself.

Commentary

Svarūpa here means the form of the Lord.
