TRANSLATION

My dear King, in former days Lord Śiva and other demigods took shelter of the lotus feet of Sańkarṣaṇa. Thus they immediately got free from the illusion of duality and achieved unequaled and unsurpassed glories in spiritual life. You will very soon attain that very same position.

Thus end the Bhaktivedanta purports of the Sixth Canto, Fifteenth Chapter, of the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, entitled "The Saints Nārada and Ańgirā Instruct King Citraketu."
