Pensando de este modo [con el deseo de tener un hijo que matase a Indra], Diti comenzó a actuar de manera que Kaśyapa se sintiese complacido de su agradable conducta. ¡Oh, rey!, Diti se mostró muy fiel a Kaśyapa, cumpliendo sus órdenes a su entera satisfacción. Con servicio, amor, humildad y dominio de sí misma, con palabras dichas con gran dulzura para satisfacerle, y con las sonrisas y miradas que le dedicaba, Diti atrajo la mente de su esposo hasta tenerla bajo su control.

Thinking in this way [with a desire for a son to kill Indra], Diti began constantly acting to satisfy Kaśyapa by her pleasing behavior. O King, Diti always carried out Kaśyapa’s orders very faithfully, as he desired. With service, love, humility and control, with words spoken very sweetly to satisfy her husband, and with smiles and glances at him, Diti attracted his mind and brought it under her control.

Una mujer que desee hacerse querer por su marido y ganarse su fidelidad, debe tratar de complacerle en todo aspecto. Cuando el marido está complacido con su esposa, ella puede recibir todo lo que necesite, alhajas, y la satisfacción plena de los sentidos. Ese es el sentido de la conducta de Diti en este verso.

When a woman wants to endear herself to her husband and make him very faithful, she must try to please him in all respects. When the husband is pleased with his wife, the wife can receive all necessities, ornaments and full satisfaction for her senses. Herein this is indicated by the behavior of Diti.
