Text 11] The Lord Begs Charity from Bali Maharaja 61

Hiranyakasipu, who was running after Him with great force. In a

Visnu to enter Hiranyakasipu’s body. The word vivigna-cetah, “very
anxious,” is significant. It is not that Lord Visnu was afraid of
Hiranyakasipu; rather, because of compassion, Lord Visnu was in anxi-
ety about how to act for his welfare.
