Translation and purport composed by disciples of Śrīla Prabhupāda


TRANSLATION

His appeal thus rejected by Akrūra also, Śatadhanvā placed the precious jewel in Akrūra's care and fled on a horse that could travel one hundred yojanas [eight hundred miles].


PURPORT

The term nyasya, "leaving in the care of," implies Śatadhanvā now believed the jewel was his; thus he was leaving it in the care of a friend. In blunt terms, this is a thief's mentality.
