samasta-vividhāścarya-kalyāṇa-guṇa-vāridheḥ | guṇānām iha kṛṣṇasya diṅ-mātram upadarśitam ||218||

Translation

Only a small portion of the qualities of Kṛṣṇa, who is an ocean of a multitude of astonishing auspicious qualities, have been shown here.

Purport (Nectar of Devotion)

The above statements describe some of the wonderful reservoirs of pleasure within Kṛṣṇa, as well as the transcendental qualities of His personality. The transcendental qualities of Kṛṣṇa are compared to the ocean: no one can estimate the length and breadth of the ocean. But as one can understand the ocean’s contents simply by testing one drop of it, so these statements will give us some understanding of Kṛṣṇa’s transcendental position and qualities.
