Vishnusahasranama

Sarvesvarah: One who is the isvara for all isvaras.

Lord Krishna is the master of Brahma, all the demigods and all living entities.

Sarveshvarah – He is the Supreme Lord.

sarveshAm ISvarANAm ISvarah sarveSvarah. The Sruti says – esha
sarveSvarah – BrhadAraNya upanishad – 4.4.22 – He is the Lord of all lords.

yāṅra bhagavattā haite anyera bhagavattā
‘svayaṁ-bhagavān’-śabdera tāhātei sattā (CC Adi 2.88)

Only the Personality of Godhead, the source of all other Divinities, is eligible to be designated svayaṁ bhagavān, or the primeval Lord.

athāpi yat-pāda-nakhāvasṛṣṭaṁ jagad viriñcopahṛtārhaṇāmbhaḥ
seśaṁ punāty anyatamo mukundāt ko nāma loke bhagavat-padārthaḥ (SB 1.18.21)

Who can be worthy of the name of the Supreme Lord but the Personality of Godhead, Śrī Kṛṣṇa? Brahmājī collected the water emanating from the nails of His feet in order to award it to Lord Śiva as a worshipful welcome. This very water [the Ganges] is purifying the whole universe, including Lord Śiva.

We see from all scriptures that Lord Sri Krishna is recognized as the Supreme Lord – Sarveshvarah – the Lord of the Lords. The Lord is one without a second, but He expands Himself in many ways, and this is confirmed in the Vedas. Such expansions of the Lord are limitless, but some of them are the living entities like Brahma. There are four original Sampradayas i.e. Brahma Sampradaya, Rudra Sampradaya, Sri Sampradaya and Kumara Sampradaya. All of the four original sampradāyas are still scrupulously engaged in the transcendental service of the Lord up to date, and they all declare that Lord Kṛṣṇa, Mukunda, is the Supreme Personality of Godhead, and no other personality is equal to Him or greater than Him.

Lets chant the Holy Name of the Lord of the Lords and seek to progress in Bhakti towards Him always and at all times.
