श्रीवसिष्ठ उवाच ।
इति संचिन्तयन्नेव प्रह्लादः परवीरहा ।
निर्विकल्पपरानन्दसमाधिं समुपाययौ ॥ १ ॥

śrīvasiṣṭha uvāca |
iti saṃcintayanneva prahlādaḥ paravīrahā |
nirvikalpaparānandasamādhiṃ samupāyayau || 1 ||

Vasishtha said:—Prahlada the defeater of inimical hosts, was sitting in the said manner in divine meditation, and was absorbed in his entranced rapture, and undisturbed anaesthesia or insensibility for a long time.
