Translation

Překlad

Śukadeva Gosvāmī continued: Even after being cursed in this way by his own spiritual master, Bali Mahārāja, being a great personality, never deviated from his determination. Therefore, according to custom, he first offered water to Vāmanadeva and then offered Him the gift of land he had promised.

Śukadeva Gosvāmī pak pokračoval: Dokonce ani poté, co ho proklel jeho vlastní duchovní mistr, vznešený Bali Mahārāja nepolevil ve svém odhodlání. Proto, jak je obyčejem, nejprve obětoval Vāmanadevovi vodu, a pak Mu daroval zemi, kterou Mu slíbil.
