If the Supreme Personality of Godhead, who is one without a second, who is the reservoir of all transcendental qualities, and who is the life and soul of all living entities, is pleased with us, we wish that this brāhmaṇa, Durvāsā Muni, be freed from the pain of being burned.

Translation
If the one Supreme Lord, the reservoir of all transcendental qualities, is pleased with us, since he has love for all beings as his very self, may this brāhmaṇa be freed from the pain of being burned.
Seeing the cakra disregard his oath, he made a stronger oath. If the Lord is pleased with us, by his having love for all beings as if they were his self, may the brāhmaṇa be free from being burned.
Personal Guidance
Ambarīṣa's final appeal is not to merit but to the Lord's pleasure with His devotees. The deepest cause for blessing in our lives is not what we have done but the Lord's affection for those who love Him.
Reflection Questions
- Do I lean more on my track record of religiosity or on the Lord's loving relationship with His devotees?
- What heavy situation could I release today by simply trusting that the Lord is pleased with sincere love?
