अर्थMeaning
Then they said to the eye: 'Do thou sing out for us.' 'Yes,' said the eye, and sang. Whatever delight there is in the eye, that he obtained for the Devas by singing; but that he saw well, that was for himself The Asuras knew: 'Verily, through this singer they will overcome us.' They therefore rushed at the singer, and pierced him with evil. That evil which consists in seeing what is bad, that is that evil.

व्याख्याVyakhya
फिर उन्होंने नेत्र से कहा, 'तुम हमारे लिए उद्गान करो।' 'ठीक है', कहकर नेत्र ने उनके लिए उद्गान किया। नेत्र में जो भोग है, उसे उसने देवताओं के लिए गाकर प्राप्त किया, और जो वह शुभ देखता है, उसे अपने लिए। असुरों ने जाना, 'इस उद्गाता के द्वारा ये हमें पराजित कर देंगे।' उन्होंने उस पर टूटकर उसे पाप से बींध दिया। जो यह अनुचित देखना है, वही वह पाप है।
