Translation

Dhruva Mahārāja thought to himself: To endeavor to be situated in the shade of the lotus feet of the Lord is not an ordinary task, because even the great brahmacārīs headed by Sanandana, who practiced aṣṭāṅga-yoga in trance, attained the shelter of the Lord’s lotus feet only after many, many births. Within six months I achieved the same result, yet due to my thinking differently from the Lord, I fell down from my position.

हिन्दी टीका-पाठ

ध्रुवजी मन-ही-मन कहने लगे— अहो! सनकादि ऊर्ध्वरेता (नैष्ठिक ब्रह्मचारी) सिद्ध भी जिन्हें समाधिद्वारा अनेकों जन्मोंमें प्राप्त कर पाते हैं, उन भगवच्चरणोंकी छायाको मैंने छ: महीनेमें ही पा लिया, किन्तु चित्तमें दूसरी वासना रहनेके कारण मैं फिर उनसे दूर हो गया॥ ३०॥
