Translation
Satyasena, along with his friend Satyajit, who was Indra, killed all the untruthful, impious and misbehaving Yakṣas, Rākṣasas and ghostly living entities, who gave pain to other living beings.
Personal Guidance
Satyasena with Indra Satyajit removed untruthful, impious beings who tormented others. The Lord defends those who suffer at the hands of cruelty. Aligning with truth places you under His protection; aligning with falsehood places you among His targets.
Reflection Questions
- Where am I currently aligned with truth, and where with comfortable lies?
- Whom can I protect today by simply refusing to participate in untruthful speech or action?
