Srimad-Bhagavatam: Canto 3 - Chapter 1 - Verse 11


Sanskrit:

एते वयं न्यासहरा रसौकसांगतह्रियो गदया द्रावितास्ते ।तिष्ठामहेऽथापि कथञ्चिदाजौस्थेयं क्‍व यामो बलिनोत्पाद्य वैरम् ॥ ११ ॥

ITRANS:

ete vayaṁ nyāsa-harā rasaukasāṁgata-hriyo gadayā drāvitās tetiṣṭhāmahe ’thāpi kathañcid ājaustheyaṁ kva yāmo balinotpādya vairam

Translation:

Certainly We have stolen the charge of the inhabitants of Rasātala and have lost all shame. Although bitten by your powerful mace, I shall stay here in the water for some time because, having created enmity with a powerful enemy, I now have no place to go.

Purport:

The demon should have known that God cannot be driven out of any place, for He is all-pervading. Demons think of their possessions as their property, but actually everything belongs to the Supreme Personality of Godhead, who can take anything at any time He likes.
