Indra, King of heaven, being protected by the arms of Vāmanadeva, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, thus regained his rule of the three worlds and was reinstated in his own position, supremely opulent, fearless and fully satisfied.

Gauḍīya
Translation
Indra, King of heaven, being protected by the arms of Vāmana, having regained his rule of the three worlds and endowed with the utmost wealth, lived happily without fear.
Personal Guidance
Protected by Vāmana's arms, Indra regained the three worlds — opulent, fearless, fully satisfied. The trio: regained position, removed fear, complete satisfaction. The Lord's protection produces all three; partial protection produces none.
Reflection Questions
- Of these three — regained position, fearlessness, satisfaction — which is currently missing from my life?
- Where am I trying to manufacture one of these when the actual root is His protection?
