TRANSLATION
By hearing these topics from the sage [Narada], the son of King
Uttanapada [Dhruva] was enlightened regarding the Personality of
Godhead, and he ascended to the abode of the Lord, placing his feet over
the head of death.
PURPORT
While quitting his body, Maharaja Dhruva, the son of King Uttanapada,
was attended by personalities like Sunanda and others, who received him
in the kingdom of God. He left this world at an early age, as a young boy,
although he had attained the throne of his father and had several children
of his own. Because he was due to quit this world, death was waiting for
him. He did not care for death, however, and even with his present body
he boarded a spiritual airplane and went directly to the planet of Visnu
because of his association with the great sage, Narada, who spoke to him
the narration of the pastimes of the Lord.
