yajamānaḥ svayaṁ tasya
yajamānaḥ svayaṁ tasya
śrīmat pāda-yugaṁ mudā
avanijyāvahan mūrdhni
tad apo viśva-pāvanīḥ
Bali Mahārāja jubilantly washed the Lord's lotus feet and then took the water, which purifies the universe, on his head.
|| 8.20.19 ||
tadāsurendraṁ divi devatā-gaṇā
gandharva-vidyādhara-siddha-cāraṇāḥ
tat karma sarve 'pi gṛṇanta ārjavaṁ
prasūna-varṣair vavṛṣur mudānvitāḥ
At that time, the devatās, the Gandharvas, the Vidyādharas, the Siddhas and the Cāraṇas, praising Bali Mahārāja's simple act, showered upon him flowers with joy.
The devatās praised his sincere act.
|| 8.20.20 ||
nedur muhur dundubhayaḥ sahasraśo
gandharva-kimpūruṣa-kinnarā jaguḥ
manasvinānena kṛtaṁ suduṣkaraṁ
vidvān adād yad ripave jagat-trayam
Thousands of drums sounded. The Gandharvas, the Kimpuruṣas and the Kinnaras sang in great jubilation, declaring, "Exalted Bali Mahārāja has performed a difficult task, since knowingly he gave the Lord the entire three worlds."
|| 8.20.21 ||
tad vāmanaṁ rūpam avardhatādbhutaṁ
harer anantasya guṇa-trayātmakam
bhūḥ khaṁ diśo dyaur vivarāḥ payodhayas
tiryaṅ-nṛ-devā ṛṣayo yad-āsata
The form of the dwarf, the unlimited Lord, containing within himself the whole material realm, within whom existed the land, ether, the directions, Svarga, antarīkṣa, the oceans, animals, humans, devatās and sages, then increased astonishingly.
Bali previously said that he would give Vāmana whatever he wanted (SB 8.19.38). Therefore the Lord was free to increase his size to take whatever he wanted. Within the Lord existed all of māyā and its products (guṇa-trayātmakam), since he is the controller of all things. Within him (yat) was situated the earth, sky, directions, Svarga and all creatures.
|| 8.20.22 ||
kāye balis tasya mahā-vibhūteḥ
