Srimad-Bhagavatam: Canto 6 - Chapter 1 - Verse 7


Sanskrit:

अतस्त्वमेको भूतानां सेश्वराणामधीश्वर: ।शास्ता दण्डधरो नृणां शुभाशुभविवेचन: ॥ ७ ॥

ITRANS:

atas tvam eko bhūtānāṁseśvarāṇām adhīśvaraḥśāstā daṇḍa-dharo nṝṇāṁśubhāśubha-vivecanaḥ

Translation:

The supreme judge must be one, not many. It was our understanding that you are that supreme judge and that you have jurisdiction even over the demigods. Our impression was that you are the master of all living entities, the supreme authority who discriminates between the pious and impious activities of all human beings.
