Purport

Diti and Aditi are two sisters. The sons of Aditi are called Ādityas, and the sons of Diti are called Daityas. All the Ādityas are devotees of the Lord, and all the Daityas are atheistic. Although Prahlāda was born in the family of the Daityas, he was a great devotee from his childhood. Because of his devotional service and godly nature, he is considered to be a representative of Kṛṣṇa.

SMISAO: Diti i Aditi su sestre. Aditini se sinovi zovu Āditye, a Ditini sinovi Daitye. Svi su Āditye Gospodinovi bhakte, a svi Daitye ateisti. Premda se Prahlāda rodio u obitelji Daitya, od djetinjstva je bio veliki bhakta. Zbog njegova predanog služenja i božanske prirode smatra se predstavnikom Kṛṣṇe.

There are many subduing principles, but time wears down all things in the material universe and so represents Kṛṣṇa. Of the many animals, the lion is the most powerful and ferocious, and of the million varieties of birds, Garuḍa, the bearer of Lord Viṣṇu, is the greatest.

Postoji mnogo načela razaranja, ali vrijeme razara sve stvari u materijalnom svemiru i zato predstavlja Kṛṣṇu. Među raznim životinjama lav je najsnažniji i najstrašniji, a među milijunima različitih ptica najveća je ptica Garuḍa, nositelj Gospodina Viṣṇua.
