TRANSLATION
Such is the account given by some sages, O wise King, but those who speak in this illogical way are contradicting themselves, having forgotten their own previous statements.
PURPORT
If someone thinks that Lord Krsna was actually bewildered by Salva's magic and that the Lord was subjected to ordinary mundane lamentation, such an opinion is illogical and contradictory, since it is well known that Lord Krsna is the Supreme Personality of Godhead, transcendental and absolute. This will be further explained in the following verses.
