So the Yamadūtas, their description of the body already given. They are not very good-looking. So when they saw the Viṣṇudūta—the description of the Viṣṇudūta is in the next verse—they were surprised, that "Wherefrom such nice features of the body . . ." They have been described here, sarve padma-palāśākṣāḥ. They saw that their eyes were just like petals of the lotus flower, so beautiful.

So the Yamadūtas, their description of the body already given. They are not very good-looking. So when they saw the Viṣṇudūta—the description of the Viṣṇudūta is in the next verse—they were surprised, that "Wherefrom such nice features of the body . . ." They have been described here, sarve padma-palāśākṣāḥ. They saw that their eyes were just like petals of the lotus flower, so beautiful. Sarve padma-palāśākṣāḥ pīta-kauśeya-vāsasaḥ (SB 6.1.34). And all dressed in saffron cloth, yellow. Kirīṭinaḥ, with helmet; kuṇḍalino, and earrings. Kirīṭinaḥ. Lasat-puṣkara-mālinaḥ, and with flower garlands. Just imagine if somebody is very good-looking, with helmet and nice earring, bedecked with jewels, and the helmet bedecked with jewels, and cloth yellow, with garland, four hands. Sarve ca nūtna-vayasaḥ. And all young, not old, like me; all young, like you. Nūtna-vayasaḥ. Just immediately growing young men. Sarve ca nūtna-vayasaḥ sarve cāru-caturbhujāḥ. And four-handed. Here we get two hands. In the Vaikuṇṭha planet you'll get four hands. Dhanur niṣa aṅgāsi-gadā-śaṇkha-cakra-ambuja śriyaḥ (SB 6.1.35). And each hand is decorated with bow, arrow, sword and conchshell and disc. Like that. This is the description of Vaikuṇṭha features.

So always young. There is no old age, disease or birth and death. Here in this material world these four things are there: birth, death, old age and disease. In the spiritual world the men are so beautiful, and imagine the women also still more beautiful, very attractive. But there is no sex. That is the feature, you'll find it.
