hundred horses for those sacrifices, and thus he astonished all
other kings. He surpassed even the opulence of the demigods, for
he achieved the supreme spiritual master, Hari.

PURPORT

One who achieves the lotus feet of the Supreme Personality of God-
head certainly surpasses all material wealth, even that of the demigods in
the heavenly planets. Yam labdhvd céparam labham manyate nadhikam
tatah. The achievement of the lotus feet of the Supreme Personality of
Godhead is the most exalted achievement in life.
