TRANSLATION
Indra’s sins were diminished by the influence of Rudra, the
demigod of all directions. Because Indra was protected by the god-
dess of fortune, Lord Visnu’s wife, who resides in the lotus
clusters of Manasa-sarovara Lake, Indra’s sins could not affect him.
Indra was ultimately relieved of all the reactions of his sinful deeds
by strictly worshiping Lord Visnu. Then he was called back to the
heavenly planets by the brahmanas and reinstated in his position.
