PURPORT

Vāasudevāaya means "to Krishna, the son of Vasudeva." Since by chanting the name of Krishna, Vāasudeva, one can achieve all the good results of charity, austerity and penances, it is to be understood that by the chanting of this mantra, oḿ namo bhagavate vāasudevāaya, the author or the speaker or any one of the readers of ŚSrīimad-Bhāagavatam is offering respectful obeisances unto the Supreme Lord, Krishna, the reservoir of all pleasure. In the First Canto of ŚSrīimad-Bhāagavatam, the principles of creation are described, and thus the First Canto may be called "Creation."

TRANSLATION

O my Lord, Sri Krishna, son of Vasudeva, O all-pervading Personality of Godhead, I offer my respectful obeisances unto You. I meditate upon Lord Sri Krishna because He is the Absolute Truth and the primeval cause of all causes of the creation, sustenance and destruction of the manifested universes. He is directly and indirectly conscious of all manifestations, and He is independent because there is no other cause beyond Him.

[omshaantih]

It is He only who first imparted the Vedic knowledge unto the heart of Brahmaji, the original living being. By Him even the great sages and demigods are placed into illusion, as one is bewildered by the illusory representations of water seen in fire, or land seen on water. Only because of Him do the material universes, temporarily manifested by the reactions of the three modes of nature, appear factual, although they are unreal.

[Spiritualseeker86]

I love the background too with the Shiva murti. Makes me want to offer an incent right now to Lord Ganapati and Lord Shiva.
