Many a time the Brahmana enquired, saying,O chastiser of enemies by what means have you been able to acquire the sovereignty of the three worlds? Tell me, O pious king, what those means are!-Prahlada, O king, answered the question of the Brahmana.
पृष्टश्च तेन बहुशः प्राप्तं कथमनुत्तमम्। त्रैलोक्यराज्यं धर्मज्ञ कारणं तद् ब्रवीहि मे। प्रह्लादोऽपि महाराज ब्राह्मणं वाक्यमब्रवीत्॥
