Indra’s Brahma-hatyā, Flight from Sin, and Purification by Aśvamedha
इदं महाख्यानमशेषपाप्मनांप्रक्षालनं तीर्थपदानुकीर्तनम् । भक्त्युच्छ्रयं भक्तजनानुवर्णनंमहेन्द्रमोक्षं विजयं मरुत्वत: ॥ २२ ॥ पठेयुराख्यानमिदं सदा बुधा:शृण्वन्त्यथो पर्वणि पर्वणीन्द्रियम् । धन्यं यशस्यं निखिलाघमोचनंरिपुञ्जयं स्वस्त्ययनं तथायुषम् ॥ २३ ॥
idaṁ mahākhyānam aśeṣa-pāpmanāṁ prakṣālanaṁ tīrthapadānukīrtanam bhakty-ucchrayaṁ bhakta-janānuvarṇanaṁ mahendra-mokṣaṁ vijayaṁ marutvataḥ
此大叙事中有对至上人格神那罗延(Nārāyaṇa)的圣名与圣足之颂扬,宣说奉爱(bhakti)之崇高,描绘因陀罗与弗栗陀罗苏罗等奉献者,并叙述因陀罗脱离罪业与战胜阿修罗之事。明了此因缘者,诸罪业果报皆得涤除;故智者常诵常读,并于节庆之日聆听与复诵。此故事具大吉祥,赐福与名声,灭尽诸罪,使胜诸敌,并增寿命。
Thus ends the Bhaktivedanta purports of the Sixth Canto, Thirteenth Chapter, of the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, entitled “King Indra Afflicted by Sinful Reaction.”
This verse says it cleanses all sins, increases devotion, brings auspiciousness and fame, grants victory over enemies, promotes well-being, and supports longevity.
Śukadeva Gosvāmī speaks this to Mahārāja Parīkṣit while concluding the glorification of the sacred narration and its spiritual results.
Set a steady routine of śravaṇa and pāṭha (hearing/reciting Bhagavatam), and on holy days prioritize attentive kīrtana and study to strengthen bhakti and purify habits.
