TEXT 25

taṁ muṣṭibhir vinighnantaṁ
vajra-sārair adhokṣajaḥ
kareṇa karṇa-mūle 'han
yathā tvāṣṭraṁ marut-patiḥ


SYNONYMS

tam — Hiraṇyākṣa; muṣṭibhiḥ — with his fists; vinighnantam — striking; vajra-sāraiḥ — as hard as a thunderbolt; adhokṣajaḥ — Lord Adhokṣaja; kareṇa — with the hand; karṇa-mūle — at the root of the ear; ahan — struck; yathā — as; tvāṣṭram — the demon Vṛtra (son of Tvaṣṭā); marut-patiḥ — Indra (lord of the Maruts).


TRANSLATION

The demon now began to strike the Lord with his hard fists, but Lord Adhokṣaja slapped him in the root of the ear, even as Indra, the lord of the Maruts, hit the demon Vṛtra.


PURPORT

The Lord is explained here to be adhokṣaja, beyond the reach of all material calculation. Akṣaja means "the measurement of our senses," and adhokṣaja means "that which is beyond the measurement of our senses."
