Chapter Nine
Mohinī Bewilders the Demons
|| 8.9.1 ||
śrī-śuka uvāca
te 'nyonyato 'surāḥ pātraṁ
harantas tyakta-sauhṛdāḥ
kṣipanto dasyu-dharmāṇa
āyāntīṁ dadṛśuḥ striyam
Śukadeva Gosvāmī said: The demons, having the nature of thieves, had given up friendship with one another and were snatching and throwing the pot. They then saw the woman approach.
The Ninth Chapter describes how Mohinī bewilders and cheats the demons, gives the nectar to the devatās to drink, and how Rāhu is beheaded.
|| 8.9.2 ||
aho rūpam aho dhāma
aho asyā navaṁ vayaḥ
iti te tām abhidrutya
papracchur jāta-hṛc-chayāḥ
"Alas, how wonderful is her beauty, how wonderful is the luster of her body, and how wonderful is the beauty of her youth!" Speaking in this way, they pursued her, and, with lust in their hearts, inquire from her.
|| 8.9.3 ||
kā tvaṁ kañja-palāśākṣi
kuto vā kiṁ cikīrṣasi
kasyāsi vada vāmoru
mathnatīva manāṁsi naḥ
O girl with beautiful thighs! You have such nice eyes, resembling the petals of a lotus flower. Who are you? Where do you come from? What is your purpose in coming here, and whose daughter are you? You are agitating our minds.
Whose daughter are you (kasya asi)?
|| 8.9.4 ||
na vayaṁ tvāmarair daityaiḥ
siddha-gandharva-cāraṇaiḥ
nāspṛṣṭa-pūrvāṁ jānīmo
lokeśaiś ca kuto nṛbhiḥ
What to speak of human beings, even the devatās, demons, Siddhas, Gandharvas, Cāraṇas and the various directors of the universe, the Prajāpatis, have never touched you before. It is not that we are unable to understand this.
It is not that we do not know that you have not been touched by the devatās and others. We know that. They imply, “Have you come here for choosing a husband?”
|| 8.9.5 ||
nūnaṁ tvaṁ vidhinā subhrūḥ
