O dear ones, I shall state the truth. I have always borne your wrath. I do not take into account the sin committed by my children. I have inflicted punishment on those who are afflicted by my illusion. [...] On hearing his speech, Viṣṇu and other gods were delighted and sent out cries of approbation (i.e., śṅkṣiٲ)�.
