womb; lokan—all planets; sa-palan—with their rulers; trin—three; candi-

TRANSLATION

O haughty one, you will have two contemptuous sons born of your
condemned womb. Unlucky woman, they will cause constant lamentation
to all the three worlds!

PURPORT

Contemptuous sons are born of the condemned womb of their mother.
In Bhagavad-gita it is said, “When there is deliberate negligence of the
regulative principles of religious life, the women asa class become polluted,
and as a result there are unwanted children.” (Bg. 1.40) This is especially
true for boys; if the mother is not good, there cannot be good sons. The
learned Kagyapa could foresee the character of the sons who would be
born of the condemned womb of Diti. The womb was condemned because
of the mother’s being too sexually inclined and thus transgressing all the
laws and injunctions of the scriptures. In a society where such women are
predominant, one should not expect good children.
