tasya me 'bhītavan mūḍha
kruddhasya yasya kampante
trayo lokāḥ saheśvarāḥ
tasya me 'bhītavan mūḍha
śāsanaṁ kiṁ balo 'tyagāḥ
Fool! When I am angry all the three worlds tremble, along with their rulers. By whose strength, without fear, have you violated my order?
Balaḥ means “whose strength.”
|| 7.8.7 ||
śrī-prahrāda uvāca
na kevalaṁ me bhavataś ca rājan
sa vai balaṁ balināṁ cāpareṣām
pare 'vare 'mī sthira-jaṅgamā ye
brahmādayo yena vaśaṁ praṇītāḥ
Prahlāda said: The Lord is my strength and your strength and the strength of others who are strong. By him, all creatures high and low, moving and non-moving, headed by Brahmā, are controlled.
|| 7.8.8 ||
sa īśvaraḥ kāla urukramo 'sāv
ojaḥ sahaḥ sattva-balendriyātmā
sa eva viśvaṁ paramaḥ sva-śaktibhiḥ
sṛjaty avaty atti guṇa-trayeśaḥ
He is the Supreme Lord. He is time and performer of great deeds. He is the strength of the senses, mind and body. He is the mind, senses and body. The Supreme Lord creates, maintains and destroys the universe by his śaktis. He is master of the three guṇas.
|| 7.8.9 ||
jahy āsuraṁ bhāvam imaṁ tvam ātmanaḥ
samaṁ mano dhatsva na santi vidviṣaḥ
ṛte 'jitād ātmana utpathe sthitāt
tad dhi hy anantasya mahat samarhaṇam
Give up your demonic nature. Make your mind equal to all beings. There are no enemies except the mind which is uncontrolled and deviant. Worship the unlimited Lord.
Give up your demonic nature and make your mind think yourself and others to be equal. “How can I make my mind equal to enemies?’ There are no enemies, except for the mind (ātmanaḥ), which is uncontrolled. When you control the mind and see everyone equal to yourself, you will not see any enemies. That is being equal everywhere. Smarahaṇam means worship.
