Text 34] The Supreme Lord Is Equal to Everyone 45

matr-svasreyah—the son of the mother’s sister (Sigupala); vah—
your; caidyah—King Sisupala; dantavakrah—Dantavakra; ca—and;
pandava—O Pandava; parsada-pravarau—two exalted attendants;
visnoh—of Visnu; vipra—by brahmanas; sapét—because of a curse;
poda—from their position in Vaikuntha; cyutau—fallen.

TRANSLATION

Narada Muni continued: O best of the Pandavas, your two
cousins Sigupala and Dantavakra, the sons of your maternal aunt,
were formerly associates of Lord Visnu, but because they were
cursed by brahmanas, they fell from Vaikuntha to this material
world.

PURPORT

Sigupala and Dantavakra were not ordinary demons, but were for-
merly personal associates of Lord Visnu. They apparently fell to this ma-
terial world, but actually they came to assist the Supreme Personality of
Godhead by nourishing His pastimes within this world.
