The snake had all his sinful reactions destroyed by the touch of the Supreme Lord’s divine foot, and thus he gave up his serpent body and appeared in the form of a worshipable VidyÄdhara.
The words rÅ«paá¹ vidyÄdharÄrcitam indicate that the erstwhile snake appeared in a beautiful form worshipable among the demigods called VidyÄdharas. In other words, he appeared as the leader of the VidyÄdharas.
