Spiegazione

Prahlada is a striking choice. Born among the daityas, the opponents of the gods, he remained devoted to Vishnu despite persecution by his own father. His place in the list shows that the divine can shine anywhere, even in an unlikely family. Among those who measure or count, Krishna is time (kāla), which reckons all things. Among animals he is the lion, and among birds Garuda, son of Vinata, the great eagle who carries Vishnu. The mention of time quietly anticipates the next chapter, where time appears as the force that consumes the warriors.
