• bhaumaḥ — Narakāsura, son of the earth-goddess
  Bhauma = 'of Bhūmi'. The demon's name itself encodes the chapter's tension: a son of the earth, yet plundering heaven and abducting princesses — a reminder that material birth alone does not sanctify.
• niruddhāḥ — captured, confined
  Past passive participle of ni + √rudh. The 16,100 women are described first as 'confined' — Gauḍīyas read their later turning to Kṛṣṇa as the deeper niruddhi (binding) of bhāva, the only captivity that liberates.
• vikramam — heroic feat, adventure
  From vi + √kram (to step boldly). Parīkṣit asks not for theology but for vikrama — Bhāgavata-śravaṇa includes the relish of Kṛṣṇa's prowess; līlā-kathā is itself bhakti.
• śārṅga - dhanvanaḥ — of the wielder of the Śārṅga bow
  Śārṅga is Viṣṇu's bow, made of horn. Naming Kṛṣṇa by His weapon prefigures the chapter: this is Bhagavān in His kṣatriya aiśvarya, not the flute-player of Vraja, yet the same Person.
• hataḥ — killed
  Past participle of √han. When Bhagavān 'kills' an asura, Gauḍīyas read it as the highest mercy — instant liberation by direct contact with the Lord (sāyujya at minimum, often more).

• Padaseva Pr SB 10-59-01 Oriya
  His Grace Padaseva Prabhu· Oriya

• What rescue stories do you most want to hear from scripture?
• Where do you wait for someone else to ask the question that would unlock teaching?

Parīkṣit's question is a torch held to a dark corner of līlā — he asks not 'did it happen' but 'how was it done', because every blow of Kṛṣṇa's hand is meditation-fuel for a devotee. The wielder of Śārṅga does nothing trivial; even His war-craft is mādhurya for those who listen.
