Translation and purport composed by disciples of Śrīla Prabhupāda
TRANSLATION
A few of the demigods, however—notably Lord Brahmā and Lord Śiva—could ascertain how the Lord's mystic power was working, and thus they became astonished. All the demigods praised the Lord's mystic power and then returned to their own planets.
PURPORT
Although the demigods are virtually omniscient within this universe, they could not understand the movements of Lord Kṛṣṇa's mystic potency. Thus they were astonished.
