Å›rÄ«-nÄradaḥ uvÄca - NÄrada Muni said; dharmÄn bhÄgavatÄn - the science of devotional service to the Supreme Personality of Godhead; ittham - in this manner; Å›rutvÄ - having heard; atha - then; mithilÄ-Ä«Å›varaḥ - the master of the kingdom of MithilÄ, King Nimi; jÄyanteyÄn - to the sons of JayantÄ«; munÄ«n - sages; prÄ«taḥ - being satisfied; sa-upÄdhyÄyaḥ - along with the priests; hi - indeed; apÅ«jayat - he offered worship.
NÄrada Muni said: Having thus heard the science of devotional service, Nimi, the King of MithilÄ, felt extremely satisfied and, along with the sacrificial priests, offered respectful worship to the sagacious sons of JayantÄ«.
The word jÄyanteyÄn indicates the nine Yogendras, who were born from the womb of JayantÄ«, the wife of Ṛṣabhadeva.
