Transliteration

evaṁ surāsura-gaṇāḥ sama-deśa-kāla- hetv-artha-karma-matayo ’pi phale vikalpāḥ tatrāmṛtaṁ sura-gaṇāḥ phalam añjasāpur yat-pāda-paṅkaja-rajaḥ-śrayaṇān na daityāḥ
Synonyms
evam — thus; sura — the demigods; asura-gaṇāḥ — and the demons; sama — equal; deśa — place; kāla — time; hetu — cause; artha — objective; karma — activities; matayaḥ — ambition; api — although one; phale — in the result; vikalpāḥ — not equal; tatra — thereupon; amṛtam — nectar; sura-gaṇāḥ — the demigods; phalam — the result; añjasā — easily, totally or directly; āpuḥ — achieved; yat — because of; pāda-paṅkaja — of the lotus feet of the Supreme Personality of Godhead; rajaḥ — of the saffron dust; śrayaṇāt — because of receiving benedictions or taking shelter; na — not; daityāḥ — the demons.

Translation

The place, the time, the cause, the purpose, the activity and the ambition were all the same for both the demigods and the demons, but the demigods achieved one result and the demons another. Because the demigods are always under the shelter of the dust of the Lord’s lotus feet, they could very easily drink the nectar and get its result. The demons, however, not having sought shelter at the lotus feet of the Lord, were unable to achieve the result they desired.

हिन्दी टीका-पाठ

परीक्षित्! देखो—देवता और दैत्य दोनोंने एक ही समय एक स्थानपर एक प्रयोजन तथा एक वस्तुके लिये एक विचारसे एक ही कर्म किया था, परन्तु फलमें बड़ा भेद हो गया। उनमेंसे देवताओंने बड़ी सुगमतासे अपने परिश्रमका फल—अमृत प्राप्त कर लिया, क्योंकि उन्होंने भगवान्‌के चरणकमलोंकी रजका आश्रय लिया था। परन्तु उससे विमुख होनेके कारण परिश्रम करनेपर भी असुरगण अमृतसे वंचित ही रहे॥ २८॥
