Text 8] The Lord Agrees to Become Aditi’s Son 7
through her eyes the Supreme Lord, who is the husband of the
goddess of fortune, the enjoyer of all sacrificial ceremonies, and
the master and Lord of the entire universe.
PURPORT

After observing the payo-vrata, Aditi was certain that the Lord had
appeared before her as Ram4-pati, the husband of all good fortune, just
to offer her sons all opulences. She had performed the yajna of payo-
vrata under the direction of her husband, Kasyapa, and therefore she
thought of the Lord as Yajfia-pati. She was completely satisfied to see the
master and Lord of the entire universe come before her to fulfill her
desire.
