What Verse 19 is showing us

One devotional arc: Lord Vishnu possesses boundless divine intellect, discerning refuge before crisis unfolds (Mahabuddhih), and limitless courage that walks into any tempest without fear (Mahaviryah). With effortless, infinite divine power (Mahashaktih), He lifts the heavy mountain of worldly fear, while His supreme radiance illumines and warms every seeking soul beneath His care (Mahadyutih). Though cherished in a familiar, intimate form, His true glory transcends all worldly description (Anirdeshyavapuh), ever blessed by the inseparable presence of Sri Lakshmi (Shrimaan). Humbled celestial rulers find His inner self immeasurable beyond reckoning (Ameyatma), as He steadfastly bears and uplifts the great mountain to grant eternal shelter to His devotees (Mahadridhrik).
