hayamedhena bhārata
yathāvad dīkṣayāṁ cakruḥ
puruṣārādhanena ha
O King! The brāhmaṇa sages approached him and had him properly perform a horse sacrifice with worship of the Supreme Lord.
|| 6.13.19-20 ||
athejyamāne puruṣe
sarva-devamayātmani
aśvamedhe mahendreṇa
vitate brahma-vādibhiḥ
sa vai tvāṣṭra-vadho bhūyān
api pāpa-cayo nṛpa
nītas tenaiva śūnyāya
nīhāra iva bhānunā
When the sages performed the horse sacrifice and Indra worshipped the Supreme Lord, the sin of killing Vṛtrāsura was completely destroyed, like the sun dissipating fog.
|| 6.13.21 ||
sa vājimedhena yathoditena
vitāyamānena marīci-miśraiḥ
iṣṭvādhiyajñaṁ puruṣaṁ purāṇam
indro mahān āsa vidhūta-pāpaḥ
After worshiping the Supreme Lord, controller of sacrifices, by means of a horse sacrifice executed properly by Marīci and other sages, Indra was cleansed of his sin and was again respected.
|| 6.13.22-23 ||
idaṁ mahākhyānam aśeṣa-pāpmanāṁ
prakṣālanaṁ tīrthapadānukīrtanam
bhakty-ucchrayaṁ bhakta-janānuvarṇanaṁ
mahendra-mokṣaṁ vijayaṁ marutvataḥ
paṭheyur ākhyānam idaṁ sadā budhāḥ
śṛṇvanty atho parvaṇi parvaṇīndriyam
dhanyaṁ yaśasyaṁ nikhilāgha-mocanaṁ
ripuñjayaṁ svasty-ayanaṁ tathāyuṣam
Intelligent persons should read this great narration about the purification and victory of Indra, which destroys all sins and glorifies the Supreme Lord, bhakti, and the devotees. On sacred days they should hear this narration which brings alert senses, wealth, fame, freedom from all sins, victory, good fortune and long life.
Bhakty-ucchrayam means “endowed with the excellence of bhakti.” The story describes the victory of Indra (marutvataḥ). Indriyam means “quickness of the sense.” Āyuṣam means “giving long life.”
Thus ends the commentary on the Thirteenth Chapter of the Sixth Canto of the Bhāgavatam for the pleasure of the devotees, in accordance with the previous ācāryas.
