Śrī Śukadeva Gosvāmī said: O King Parīkṣit, who are so charitably disposed, when Vṛtrāsura was killed, all the presiding deities and everyone else in the three planetary systems was immediately pleased and free from trouble — everyone, that is, except Indra.

Translation
Śukadeva Gosvāmī said: O charitable King! When Vṛtrāsura was killed, except for Indra, the three worlds and the presiding deities were immediately pleased and free from trouble. The Thirteenth Chapter describes how Indra, fearing the reaction from killing a brāhmaṇa, lived in the stem of a lotus at Mānasa Sarovara and later attained relief by performing a horse sacrifice.

Personal Guidance
With Vṛtra slain, all three worlds were immediately relieved — except Indra. The deliverer of others can remain undelivered himself.
Reflection Questions
  • Where am I bringing relief to others while carrying my own unrelieved burden?
  • Whom do I owe permission to name my own unhappiness?
