Text 33] Prahlāda, the Saintly Son of Hiraṇyakaśipu
273
yasya deve parā bhaktir yathā deve tathā gurau tasyaite kathitā hy arthāḥ prakāśante mahātmanaḥ
“Only unto those great souls who have implicit faith in both the Lord and the spiritual master are all the imports of Vedic knowledge automatically revealed.” ( Śvetāśvatara Upaniṣad  6.23)
yam evaiṣa vṛṇute tena labhyas tasyaiṣa ātmā vivṛṇute tanūṁ svām
“The Lord is obtained only by one whom He Himself chooses. To such a person He manifests His own form.” ( Muṇḍaka Upaniṣad  3.2.3)
These are Vedic injunctions. One must take shelter of a self-realized spiritual master, not a materially educated scholar or politician. One must take shelter of a  niṣkiñcana , a person engaged in devotional service and free from material contamination. That is the way to return home, back to Godhead.
TEXT 33
इत्युक्त्वोपरतं पुत्रं हिरण्यकशिपू रुषा । अन्यीकृतात्मा स्वोत्सङ्गान्निरस्यत महीतले ॥३३॥
ity uktvoparataṁ putraṁ hiraṇyakaśipū ruṣā andhikṛtātmā svotsaṅgān nirasyata mahī-tale
iti—thus; uktvā—speaking; uparatam—stopped; putram—the son; hiraṇyakaśipuḥ—Hiraṇyakaśipu; ruṣā—with great anger; andhikṛta-ātmā—made blind to self-realization; sva-utsaṅgāt—from his lap; nirasyata—threw; mahī-tale—upon the ground.
TRANSLATION
After Prahlāda Mahārāja had spoken in this way and become silent, Hiraṇyakaśipu, blinded by anger, threw him off his lap and onto the ground.
