Another definition is given by Sanātana Gosvāmī. This same Sanātana Gosvāmī who is now being taught by Lord Caitanya, he also has written many books. These two brothers, Rūpa Gosvāmī and Sanātana Gosvāmī, and their nephew, Jīva Gosvāmī, composed many valuable literatures. So Sanātana Gosvāmī has written one book, ''Laghu-bhāgavatāmṛtam''. ''Laghu-bhāgavatāmṛtam'', supplementary to ''Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam''. So in that ''Laghu-bhāgavatāmṛtam'' book, he has written:

:''jñāna-śaktya-ādi-kalayā''
:''yatrāviṣṭo janārdanaḥ''
:''ta āveśā nigadyante''
:''jīvā eva mahattamāḥ''
:([[Vanisource:CC Madhya 20.373|CC Madhya 20.373]])

He has defined that these ''śaktyāveśa avatāra'', they are all living entities; they are not on the level of ''Viṣṇu-tattva''. But they have special power and special, I mean to say, opulence to glorify the Supreme Lord.

:''vibhūti' kahiye yaiche gītā-ekādaśe''
:''jagat vyāpila kṛṣṇa-śakty-ābhāsāveśe''
:([[Vanisource:CC Madhya 20.374|CC Madhya 20.374]])

Now that ''vibhūti'' is, is mentioned by Lord Caitanya. That ''vibhūtimat sattvam, śaktyāveśa'', there are many, many. We find in the history so many extraordinary, powerful men come and go. They are called ''vibhūti'' of the Supreme Lord.

:''yad yad vibhūtimat sattvaṁ''
:''śrīmad ūrjitam eva vā''
:''tat tad evāvagaccha tvaṁ''
:''mama tejo-'ṁśa-sambhavam''
:([[Vanisource:CC Madhya 20.375|CC Madhya 20.375]])

Anyone extraordinary.
