purañjanasya caritaṁ
itihāsaṁ purātanam
purañjanasya caritaṁ
nibodha gadato mama
I will relate to you this ancient, historical story of Purañjana. Please understand it as I speak.
Nārada considered. I will enlighten the King who is fond of material stories, with this material story. I will awaken him to his condition by relating a different story, using the ornament of aprastuta-praśaṁsa (conveying the message by something which is different). The meaning of the sentence is clear. However, actually this is story about you, who create (janayati) your body (puram) by your actions. It is ancient because it starts before you entered the womb of your mother.

āsīt purañjano nāma
rājā rājan bṛhac-chravāḥ
tasyāvijñāta-nāmāsīt
sakhāvijñāta-ceṣṭitaḥ
O King! There was a very famous king named Purañjana. He had an unknown friend, whose name and activities were unknown.
It will be explained five chapters later that Purañjana is King Barhiṣat. However, for easy understanding I will explain the story as it is. Purañjana is the jīva. Because he exists (rāj) with soul and other elements, he is called a king (raja). Śravāḥ means fame or hearing. Because he is famous for being intent on hearing about activities to produce happiness in the present and future, he is called śravāḥ, one who hears. The friend whose name and activities were unknown to him is the Supreme Lord. Or the friend has recognized activities (vijñāta-ceṣtitaḥ), such as inspiring the jīva, since he knows the dependent nature of the jīva.
