Significado

In this verse the word pratyuditāḥ is very significant. The servants of Yamarāja are so powerful that they can never be hindered anywhere, but this time they were baffled and disappointed in their attempt to take away a man they considered sinful. Therefore they immediately returned to Yamarāja and described to him everything that had happened.

En este verso es muy significativa la palabra pratyuditāḥ. Los sirvientes de Yamarāja son tan poderosos que nadie puede nunca impedirles su labor, pero esa vez, en su intento de llevarse a un hombre que consideraban pecaminoso, acabaron confundidos y contrariados. Por esa razón, regresaron de inmediato para explicar a Yamarāja todo lo ocurrido.
