Śukadeva Gosvāmī continued: O King, I have described to you the pastime of Gajendra-mokṣaṇa, which is most pious to hear. By hearing of such activities of the Lord, one can be freed from all sinful reactions. Now please listen as I describe Raivata Manu.

Translation
Śukadeva Gosvāmī said: O King! I have described to you the pure story of the deliverance of Gajendra, which destroys sin. Now please listen as I describe Raivata Manu.
The Fifth Chapter describes the prayers of the devatās after they lost power through the curse of Durvāsā, in relation to the sixth Manvantara avatāra Ajita.
