The Slaying of Narakāsura (Bhaumāsura), Rescue of the Princesses, and the Pārijāta Episode Begins
श्रीशुक उवाच इति भूम्यर्थितो वाग्भिर्भगवान् भक्तिनम्रया । दत्त्वाभयं भौमगृहं प्राविशत् सकलर्द्धिमत् ॥ ३२ ॥
śrī-śuka uvāca iti bhūmy-arthito vāgbhir bhagavān bhakti-namrayā dattvābhayaṁ bhauma-gṛham prāviśat sakalarddhimat
Śrī Śukadeva nói: Được Nữ thần Bhūmi khẩn cầu bằng lời khiêm cung đầy bhakti, Đấng Tối Thượng ban sự vô úy cho cháu của bà rồi bước vào cung điện của Bhaumāsura, nơi tràn đầy mọi của cải.
In this verse, Bhūmi-devī approaches with devotionally humble words, and Bhagavān grants her abhaya—showing that sincere bhakti draws the Lord’s protection and freedom from fear.
After the events involving Bhauma (Narakāsura), Bhūmi-devī petitions the Lord; Śukadeva describes that Kṛṣṇa responds by reassuring her and then entering Bhauma’s opulent palace.
Approach God with humility and devotion rather than anxiety; the Bhagavatam’s mood here is that bhakti brings inner fearlessness and clarity to face challenges.
