WORD BY WORD
TRANSLATION
 | Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira further inquired: How was it possible for a father to be so violent toward an exalted son who was obedient, well-behaved and respectful to his father? O brāhmaṇa, O master, I have never heard of such a contradiction as an affectionate father’s punishing his noble son with the intention of killing him. Kindly dissipate our doubts in this regard.
|
PURPORT
| | In the history of human society, an affectionate father is rarely found to chastise a noble and devoted son. Therefore Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira wanted Nārada Muni to dissipate his doubt.
Thus end the purports by His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Svāmi Prabhupāda of the Seventh Canto, Fourth Chapter, of the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, entitled “Hiraṇyakaśipu Terrorizes the Universe.”
