Purport

Any glorious or beautiful existence should be understood to be but a fragmental manifestation of Kṛṣṇa’s opulence, whether it be in the spiritual or material world. Anything extraordinarily opulent should be considered to represent Kṛṣṇa’s opulence.

Purport (Visvanatha Cakravarti Thakura)

In this verse the Lord brings together all the vibhūtis of past, present and future which were not previously mentioned. Whatever object (sattvam) has majesty (vibhūtimat), excellence (śrīmat), or extraordinary strength or power (ūrjitam), know that it comes from a portion of My power.

Purport (Baladeva Vidyabhusana)

In this verse the Lord gathers together all the vibhūtis which he did not mention. Whatever object (satttvam) exists, having powers (vibhūtimat), having abundance of beauty (śrīmat) or strength (ūrjitam), understand that the object gains it perfection (sambhavam) by a particle of My śakti (mama tejaḥ aṁśa). One should consider that all these are non-different from Me by being under My control and by being pervaded by Me. Forms like Vāmana are also included in this perception.

Surrender Unto Me

This text sums‑up all the opulences previously mentioned. Everything opulent, beautiful, glorious and strong that exists should be seen as just a part of Krsna's splendor.
