Bali Liberated, Prahlāda Blessed, and Vāmana Accepted as Universal Protector
श्रीशुक उवाच प्रतिनन्द्य हरेराज्ञामुशना भगवानिति । यज्ञच्छिद्रं समाधत्त बलेर्विप्रर्षिभि: सह ॥ १८ ॥
śrī-śuka uvāca pratinandya harer ājñām uśanā bhagavān iti yajña-cchidraṁ samādhatta baler viprarṣibhiḥ saha
舒迦提婆·瞿斯瓦弥继续说:就这样,威力无比的乌沙那(舒克拉阿阇黎)以至诚恭敬接受了哈利的命令,并与最优秀的婆罗门圣仙们一道,开始弥补并修正巴利·摩诃罗阇祭祀中的缺失。
This verse states that when a defect (yajña-chidra) arises, qualified brāhmaṇas and sages perform proper atonement rites to rectify it—here done for Bali’s sacrifice under Hari’s sanction.
In the narrative of Bali and Vāmana, Uśanā ultimately acknowledges Viṣṇu’s supreme will; therefore he consents and proceeds with the corrective ritual measures for the sacrifice.
When a sincere spiritual effort contains flaws, one should not abandon dharma; instead, seek guidance from qualified teachers, accept responsibility, and correct the error through proper, humble remedial action.
