athātale maya-putro 'suro balo nivasati yena ha vā iha sṛṣṭāḥ ṣaṇ-ṇavatir māyāḥ kāścanādyāpi māyāvino dhārayanti yasya ca jṛmbhamāṇasya mukhatas trayaḥ strī-gaṇā udapadyanta svairiṇyaḥ kāminyaḥ puṁścalya iti yā vai bilāyanaṁ praviṣṭaṁ puruṣaṁ rasena hāṭakākhyena sādhayitvā sva-vilāsāvalokanānurāga-smita-saṁlāpopagūhanādibhiḥ svairaṁ kila ramayanti yasminn upayukte puruṣa īśvaro 'haṁ siddho 'ham ity ayuta-mahā-gaja-balam ātmānam abhimanyamānaḥ katthate madāndha iva.

In Atala there is a demon, the son of Maya Dānava named Bala, who created ninety-six kinds of mystic power. Some people hold some of these powers even today. Simply by yawning, the demon Bala created three kinds of women, known as svairiṇī, kāmiṇī and puṁścalī. When a man enters their houses, these women make him fit with hāṭaka, and enjoy with him by embraces, talking, attractive smiles and playful glances. Drinking this beverage, the man, thinking he has the strength of ten thousand elephants, as if blind with intoxication, boasts “I am God, and am perfect.”

Those women who enjoy in their own caste are called svariṇī. Those who enjoy outside their caste are called kāminī. Those who are very fickle in enjoying are called puṁścalī.  Bilāyanam means their houses which are like holes. They make him fit for sex enjoyment by the beverage. When he drinks that beverage (yasmin upayukte), he feels as strong as ten thousand elephants.

tato 'dhastād vitale haro bhagavān hāṭakeśvaraḥ sva-pārṣada-bhūta-gaṇāvṛtaḥ prajāpati-sargopabṛṁhaṇāya bhavo bhavānyā saha mithunī-bhūta āste yataḥ pravṛttā sarit-pravarā hāṭakī nāma bhavayor vīryeṇa yatra citrabhānur mātariśvanā samidhyamāna ojasā pibati tan niṣṭhyūtaṁ hāṭakākhyaṁ suvarṇaṁ bhūṣaṇenāsurendrāvarodheṣu puruṣāḥ saha puruṣībhir dhārayanti.

Below Atala, on Vitala, Lord Śiva, who is known as the master of gold mines, lives with his wife, surrounded by his personal associates, the ghosts, for producing progeny. From Vitala a river called Hāṭakī made from their vital energy flows. It is heated by Vāyu and hardened by Agni. The men and their wives wear that gold called Hāṭaka along with their jewel ornaments with great admiration in the houses of the great demons.    

That gold is heated by Vāyu and hardened (pibati) by Agni. This gold is spit out (niṣṭhyūtam) by Agni, taken from the fire. Or, it has been given up by Śiva and Bhavāṇī. The men wear that gold along with their jewel ornaments with great admiration.

tato 'dhastāt sutale udāra-śravāḥ puṇya-śloko virocanātmajo balir bhagavatā mahendrasya priyaṁ cikīrṣamāṇenāditer labdha-kāyo bhūtvā vaṭu-vāmana-rūpeṇa parākṣipta-loka-trayo bhagavad-anukampayaiva punaḥ praveśita indrādiṣv avidyamānayā susamṛddhayā śriyābhijuṣṭaḥ sva-dharmeṇārādhayaṁs tam eva bhagavantam ārādhanīyam apagata-sādhvasa āste 'dhunāpi.

Below the planet Vitala, on Sutala, the son of Mahārāja Virocana, Bali Mahārāja, who is famous and praised by verses, resides even now. He was cheated of the three worlds by the Lord, who, desiring to please Indra, appeared in the form of Vāmana, born from Aditi. Reinstated by the Lord’s mercy on Sutala and blessed with wealth not possessed even by Indra, he worships with fearless heart the Lord who is most worthy of worship.

Bali has much fame (udāra-śravāḥ) and verses of praise (puṇya-ślokaḥ). He was reinstated on Sutala-loka.

|| 5.24.19 ||

no evaitat sākṣātkāro bhūmi-dānasya yat tad bhagavaty aśeṣa-jīva-nikāyānāṁ jīva-bhūtātma-bhūte paramātmani vāsudeve tīrthatame pātra upapanne parayā śraddhayā paramādara-samāhita-manasā sampratipāditasya sākṣād apavarga-dvārasya yad bila-nilayaiśvaryam.

Mere attainment of the enjoyment on Sutala is not the real result of Bali’s giving land to Vāsudeva, the life of unlimited jīvas, the supreme source of Paramātmā, the most suitable and most pure. This act was executed with great faith and devotion and is the door to the highest liberation.

Some people will think that Bali attained his position on Sutala as a result of giving land to Vāmana. This verse negates that idea. The wealth in his abode in Sutala is not the real result (sākṣātkāraḥ) of giving land to the Lord. His giving land is famous. Bhūmi means the three worlds. It is stated in the scriptures that just by giving a small portion of land to a brāhmaṇa learned in the Vedas one can attain the enjoyment of Svarga. Thus it is impossible that he attained only enjoyment of wealth on Sutala as a result of giving the three worlds to the Supreme Lord. He should get liberation from the world. And the incidental enjoyment on Sutala should be greater that the enjoyment on Svarga. He gave land to Lord Vāsudeva, who acts as the life of beings (jīva-bhūta-ātma-bhūte), antaryāmī.   But he is the supreme ātmā (paramātmane), being the aṁśī or source of all the antaryāmīs. Viṣṭabhyāham idaṁ kṛtsnam ekāṁśena sthito jagat: by one portion of myself I am situated in this universe. (BG 10.42) Being fit as the supreme (upapanne), he is also the supreme pure (tiṛthatmane). If giving a leaf or flower gives liberation, how much more will giving the three worlds yield (apavarga-dvārasya)? Thus merely attaining Sutala is not the result of his giving the three worlds.

|| 5.24.20 ||

yasya ha vāva kṣuta-patana-praskhalanādiṣu vivaśaḥ sakṛn nāmābhigṛṇan puruṣaḥ karma-bandhanam añjasā vidhunoti yasya haiva pratibādhanaṁ mumukṣavo 'nyathaivopalabhante.

The person who just once chants the Lord’s name while stumbling or falling from hunger easily destroys the bondage of karma, which persons desiring liberation attempt to destroy by other means.

What to speaking of offering the three worlds, or even offering a leaf or flower with devotion! Even nāmābhasa destroys the bondage of karma, which cannot be removed by pious acts. It is not easy to destroy the bondage of karma. Those desiring liberation—not those who piously give land--accept many means to destroy the bondage of karma by other means. They accept difficulties in aṣṭāṅga-yoga and sāṅkhya to destroy bondage.

|| 5.24.21 ||

Enjoying Svarga was not the result of giving land to the Supreme Lord, who gives himself to his devotees and gives realization of Paramātmā to the ātmārāmas.

This is not the result of giving land to the Supreme Lord, the soul of all beings. The Lord gives himself (ātma-de), being controlled by the devotees like Nārada. He is the form of Paramātmā (ātmatame)[69] for the realizers of ātmā like the Kumāras. How can the Lord who gives premānanda and brahmānanda give material pleasure to his devotee? In exchange for the land, the Lord gave Bali the bliss of prema, which brings him under control, since the Lord became the door keeper of Bali on Sutala.
