应诸天之请，罗阇伊诛灭阿修罗，将天界王权归还因陀罗。然而因陀罗惧怕如普罗诃罗陀等强敌，便执罗阇伊的莲足，将天界再度奉还于他，甚至自身亦在其足下归降。
FAQs
This verse says that, when requested by the devas, King Raji defeated the Daityas and handed the celestial kingdom back to Indra.
Indra feared retaliation from powerful enemies like Prahlāda and therefore returned sovereignty to Raji and took shelter at Raji’s feet.
The verse highlights that even the powerful may seek protection; recognizing limits, acting responsibly, and taking shelter in rightful authority are practical expressions of humility.
