[Advaita-l] Fwd: 'You are my equal' says Krishna to Shiva

[V Subrahmanian]

In the Brahma vaivarta Purana there is this dialogue:
ब्रह्मवैवर्तपुराणम्/खण्डः १ (ब्रह्मखण्डः)/अध्यायः ०६
https://sa.wikisource.org/s/129l
अद्यप्रभृति ज्ञानेन तेजसा वयसा शिव ।। २९ ।।
पराक्रमेण यशसा महसा मत्समो भव।।

From today onwards O Shiva you shall be my equal in knowledge, brilliance,
age, prowess, fame and splendor.

प्राणानामप्यधिकस्त्वञ्च न भक्तस्त्वत्परो मम ।।1.6.३०।।
त्वत्परो नास्ति मे प्रेयांस्त्वं मदीयात्मनः परः।।
You are greater to me than my life, of me there is no greater devotee than
you. None is more loving to me than you, you are greater than my self.
