Meaning:
Lord of Sri! Are you not the proud possessor of the two mantras – “Bala” and “Ati Bala” praised by Indra? Don’t you know the strength and weakness of your devotees? Did not a mere blade of grass wielded by you turn into a mighty weapon Brahmastra, and pursue the offending cow, Kaakaasura? One who bestows wealth! Where is your concern for those born as BhUsuras, yet ignorant of the righteous path?
