The Battle between the Rākṣasas and Yama’s Attendant-Messengers
चित्रगुप्तो महाबाहुः सर्वलोकार्थचिन्तकः ॥ समः सर्वेषु भूतेषु भूतानां च समादिशत् ॥
citragupto mahābāhuḥ sarvalokārthacintakaḥ || samaḥ sarveṣu bhūteṣu bhūtānāṃ ca samādiśat ||
चित्रगुप्त बहुत ताकत वाला था। वो सब दुनिया का भला सोचता था। वो सबसे एक जैसा प्यार करता था, किसी को ज़्यादा या कम नहीं। उसने सब लोगों के बारे में हुकुम दिया।
