How else the idea to give away her husband as a gift occurred to Satyabhama? O Lord whose splendour surpasses that of autumnal cloud! Who else is there for ascetics and self restrained other than You? O Lord praised by this Tyagaraja! I have placed full faith in You; O Lord preceptor Narada who protected Prahlada in this very Earth by relieving his worry! |

- 2satyabhAma – the reference here is to the story of Satyabhama – wife of Krishan. In order to keep Krishna always to herself, she observes certain religious rites, as advised by sage nArada. As part of the rites, she first gifts Him (Krishna) to sage Narada and then tries to buy Him back by offering wealth equivalent to the weight of Sri Krishna. The exact place where this story is found is not known. However, the gist of the story is given in the web site - [Satyabhama]
