WORD BY WORD
TRANSLATION
 | The Supreme Personality of Godhead told Satrājit: We do not care to take this jewel back, O King. You are the sun-god’s devotee, so let it stay in your possession. Thus We will also enjoy its benefits.
|
PURPORT
| | Satrājit should have worshiped Lord Kṛṣṇa, the Supreme God. Thus there is certainly a touch of irony in Lord Kṛṣṇa’s saying “After all, you are a devotee of the sun-god.” Furthermore, Kṛṣṇa had already acquired Satrājit’s greatest treasure, the pure and beautiful Satyabhāmā.
Thus end the purports of His Holiness Hṛdayānanda dās Gosvāmi, initiated disciple of His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupāda to the Tenth Canto, Fifty-sixth Chapter, of the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, entitled “The Syamantaka Jewel.”
