iti tasmai varaá¹ dattvÄ
Å›riyaá¹ cÄnvaya-vardhinÄ«m
balam Äyur yaÅ›aḥ kÄntiá¹
nirjagÄma sahÄgrajaḥ
iti - thus; tasmai - to him; varam - the benediction; dattvÄ - giving; Å›riyam - opulence; ca - and; anvaya - his family; vardhinÄ«m - expanding; balam - strength; Äyuḥ - long life; yaÅ›aḥ - fame; kÄntim - beauty; nirjagÄma - He left; saha - together with; agra-jaḥ - His elder brother, Lord BalarÄma.
Not only did Lord Kṛṣṇa grant SudÄmÄ these benedictions, but He also awarded him strength, long life, fame, beauty and ever-increasing prosperity for his family. Then Kṛṣṇa and His elder brother took Their leave.
We can see a clear difference between Lord Kṛṣṇa’s dealings with the nasty washerman and His dealings with the devoted florist SudÄmÄ. The Lord is as hard as a thunderbolt for those who defy Him and as soft as a rose for those who surrender to Him. Therefore we should all sincerely surrender to Lord Kṛṣṇa, since that is clearly in our self-interest.
Thus end the purports of the humble servants of His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami PrabhupÄda to the Tenth Canto, Forty-first Chapter, of the ÅšrÄ«mad-BhÄgavatam, entitled “Kṛṣṇa and BalarÄma Enter MathurÄ.â€
