TRANSLATION

Because King Yayati completely surrendered unto the Supreme
Personality of Godhead, Vasudeva, he was freed from all con-
tamination of the material modes of nature. Because of his self-
realization, he was able to fix his mind upon the Transcendence
[Parabrahman, Vasudeva], and thus he ultimately achieved the
position of an associate of the Lord.

PURPORT

The word vidhuta, meaning “‘cleansed,” is very significant. Everyone
in this material world is contaminated (kdranarh guna-sango sya).
