The gods invoked goddess ÝŒradŒ and praised her. They said,“O goddess, we celestials have sought refuge in you; pray protect us. Change Bharata’s mind by exerting your MŒyŒ (deluding potency) and preserve the heavenly race from ruin by taking them under the cool shade of some deceptive trick.” When the wise goddess heard the gods’ prayer, she understood that selfishness had robbed them of their senses, and accordingly replied (turning towards Indra in particular), “ You ask me to alter Bharata’s mind! It is a pity you cannot see Mount Meru even though you possess a thousand eyes. The MŒyŒ (deluding potency) even of BrahmŒ (the Creator), Hari (the Preserver) and Hara (the Destroyer of the universe), exceedingly powerful as it is, cannot even face Bharata’s reason. And yet you ask me to pervert it. What! Can the moonlight steal away the sun? Bharata’s heart is 616 * ÝR” RMACARITAMNASA* the abode of S¶tŒ and Ýr¶ RŒma; can darkness enter where the sun shines?” So saying goddess ÝŒradŒ returned to BrahmŒ’s heaven, leaving the gods as distressed as the CakravŒka bird at night.
