Maitreya said: Instructed thus by the guru of the universe, Pṛthu, the King, made peace with Indra, showing him affection. Ca means certainly. According to the instruction of Brahmā, he showed affection to Indra. Though Indra was elder and was King of the devatās, by the order of Brahmā, Pṛthu showed affection. They were equal, since they both are viśuddha-sattva, but Brahmā saw that Pṛthu was superior because of his superior bhakti, and thus instructed him to show affection to Indra. Sandadhe means “they made peace.”
