Srimad-Bhagavatam: Canto 8 - Chapter 1 - Verse 10


Sanskrit:

इत्थं स निश्चित्य पितामहो महा-नगाधबोधो भवत: पादपद्मम् ।ध्रुवं प्रपेदे ह्यकुतोभयं जनाद्भीत: स्वपक्षक्षपणस्य सत्तम ॥ १० ॥

ITRANS:

itthaṁ sa niścitya pitāmaho mahānagādha-bodho bhavataḥ pāda-padmamdhruvaṁ prapede hy akutobhayaṁ janādbhītaḥ svapakṣa-kṣapaṇasya sattama

Translation:

My grandfather, the best of all men, who achieved unlimited knowledge and was worshipable for everyone, was afraid of the common men in this world. Being fully convinced of the substantiality afforded by shelter at Your lotus feet, He took shelter of Your lotus feet, against the will of his father and demoniac friends, who were killed by Your own self.
