Text 25] Narada Muni Cursed by Prajapati Daksa 293
sa bhityah paficajanyayam
ajena parisantvitah
putran ajanayad daksah
savalasvan sahasrinah
sah—Prajapati Daksa; bhiiyah—again; pdaricajanyayam—in the
womb of his wife Asikni, or Paiicajani; ajena—by Lord Brahma;
parisantvitah—being pacified; putrdn—sons; ajanayat—begot;
daksah—Prajapati Daksa; savalasvan—named the  Savalasvas;
sahasrinah—numbering one thousand.
TRANSLATION
When Prajapati Daksa was lamenting for his lost children, Lord
Brahmi pacified him with instructions, and thereafter Daksa begot
one thousand more children in the womb of his wife, Paiicajani.
This time his sons were known as the Savalasvas.
PURPORT
Prajapati Daksa was so named because he was very expert in begetting
children. (The word daksa means “‘expert.”) First he begot ten thousand
children in the womb of his wife, and when the children were lost—
when they returned home, back to Godhead —he begot another set of
children, known as the Savalasvas. Prajapati Daksa is very expert in
begetting children, and Narada Muni is very expert in delivering all the
conditioned souls back home, back to Godhead. Therefore the
materialistic experts do not agree with the spiritual expert Narada Muni,
but this does not mean that Narada Muni will give up his engagement of
chanting the Hare Krsna mantra.
