Translation
Showing Bhṛgu the realms above, the Lord’s son revealed Goloka as well, and even drew forth the seven nether worlds to display them likewise. Then, the moment he was cast into the waters of the cosmic womb, he lifted him out; and the frightened one, yearning to preserve his life, he swiftly brought back to the very place where he stood.
