112 Srimad-Bhagavatam [Canto 6, Ch. 2

TRANSLATION

My dear Maharaja Pariksit, O subduer of all enemies, after the
servants of Yamaraja had been answered by the order carriers of
Lord Visnu, they went to Yamaraja and explained to him every-

thing that had happened.
PURPORT

In this verse the word pratyuditah is very significant. The servants of
Yamaraja are so powerful that they can never be hindered anywhere, but
this time they were baffled and disappointed in their attempt to take
away a man they considered sinful. Therefore they immediately returned
to Yamaraja and described to him everything that had happened.

TRANSLATION

Having been released from the nooses of Yamaraja’s servants,
the brahmana Ajamila, now free from fear, came to his senses and
immediately offered obeisances to the Visnuditas by bowing his
head at their lotus feet. He was extremely pleased by their pres-
ence, for he had seen them save his life from the hands of the
servants of Yamaraja.
