Significado

Mahārāja Parīkṣit’s question was very much appreciated by Śukadeva Gosvāmī because although it was composed of a small number of words, it contained meaningful inquiries about how the sons of Diti, although born as demons, became demigods. Śrīla Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura stresses that even though Diti was very envious, her heart was purified because of a devotional attitude. Another significant topic is that although Kaśyapa Muni was a learned scholar and was advanced in spiritual consciousness, he nonetheless fell a victim to the inducement of his beautiful wife. All these questions were posed in a small number of words, and therefore Śukadeva Gosvāmī very much appreciated Mahārāja Parīkṣit’s inquiry.

Śukadeva Gosvāmī apreció mucho la pregunta de Mahārāja Parīkṣit, porque, aunque estaba hecha en pocas palabras, contenía preguntas importantes acerca de los hijos de Diti, que, a pesar de nacer como demonios, llegaron a ser semidioses. Śrīla Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura subraya que el corazón de Diti, a pesar de su envidia, se había purificado gracias a su actitud devocional. Otro tema importante es que Kaśyapa Muni, aunque sabio erudito de conciencia espiritual avanzada, cayó víctima de la instigación de su hermosa esposa. Mahārāja Parīkṣit planteó todas esas interrogantes en muy pocas palabras; esa es la razón de que Śukadeva Gosvāmī apreciase mucho su pregunta.
