This King alone, in his own body, will be able in due course of time to maintain all living entities and keep them in a pleasant condition by manifesting himself as different demigods to perform various departmental activities.

MahÄrÄja Pá¹›thu was so strong and powerful that no one could disobey his orders, any more than one could conquer fire itself.

Similarly, on Kumuda Mountain there is a great banyan tree, which is called ÅšatavalÅ›a because it has a hundred main branches. From those branches come many roots, from which many rivers are flowing. These rivers flow down from the top of the mountain to the northern side of IlÄvá¹›ta-vará¹£a for the benefit of those who live there. Because of these flowing rivers, all the people have ample supplies of milk, yogurt, honey, clarified butter [ghee], molasses, food grains, clothes, bedding, sitting places and ornaments. All the objects they desire are sufficiently supplied for their prosperity, and therefore they are very happy.
