Śrī Śukadeva Gosvāmī said: Bhadraśravā, the son of Dharmarāja, rules the tract of land known as Bhadrāśva-varṣa. Just as Lord Śiva worships Saṅkarṣaṇa in Ilāvṛta-varṣa, Bhadraśravā, accompanied by his intimate servants and all the residents of the land, worships the plenary expansion of Vāsudeva known as Hayaśīrṣa. Lord Hayaśīrṣa is very dear to the devotees, and He is the director of all religious principles. Fixed in the topmost trance, Bhadraśravā and his associates offer their respectful obeisances to the Lord and chant the following prayers with careful pronunciation.
Gauḍīya Ācāryas
Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura Gauḍīya
Translation
Śukadeva said: In Bhadrāśva, Bhadraśravā, the son of Dharmarāja, accompanied by his descendants and all the residents of the land, worships the dear form of Vāsudeva known as Hayaśīrṣa, the embodiment of dharma, approaching him by intense concentration and by chanting the following mantra. The worship of Hayagrīva and other deities in six varṣas starting with Bhadrāśva are described in the Eighteenth Chapter. Bhadraśravā is the name of the leader of this varṣa. Kula-patayaḥ means the chief descendents.
