अन्ये हि सुमहाभागा बलवन्तो दुरुत्सहा: | नित्योत्थानेन सम्पन्ना नारदान्धकवृष्णय:,नारदजी! अन्धक तथा वृष्णिवंशमें और भी बहुत-से वीर पुरुष हैं, जो महान् सौभाग्यशाली, बलवान एवं दुःसह पराक्रमी हैं, वे सब-के-सब सदा उद्योगशील बने रहते हैं
anye hi sumahābhāgā balavanto durutsahāḥ | nityotthānena sampannā nāradāndhakavṛṣṇayaḥ ||
Hỡi Nārada, trong hàng ngũ Andhaka và Vṛṣṇi cũng còn có nhiều dũng sĩ khác—những người đại phúc, cường tráng và khó bề chống đỡ—luôn luôn sẵn sàng, không ngừng tinh tấn và nỗ lực.

Educational Q&A
The verse highlights that enduring excellence comes from nityotthāna—steady, continual exertion and readiness. Strength and good fortune are praised, but they are framed as effective only when joined to persistent initiative and disciplined effort.
Vāyu addresses the sage Nārada and points out that, besides any previously mentioned figures, there are many other formidable heroes within the Andhaka and Vṛṣṇi clans. He characterizes them as blessed, powerful, and consistently industrious, emphasizing the collective vigor and preparedness of these lineages.
