TRANSLATION

Although Indra searched vigorously with the assistance of the
other demigods, he could not find Brhaspati. Then Indra thought,
‘*Alas, my spiritual master has become dissatisfied with me, and
now I have no means of achieving good fortune.” Although Indra
was surrounded by demigods, he could not find peace of mind.
