TRANSLATION

The valleys between the mountains became fields of pleasure for Hiranyakasipu, by whose influence all the trees and plants produced fruits and flowers profusely in all seasons. The qualities of pouring water, drying and burning, which are all qualities of the three departmental heads of the universe-namely Indra, Vayu and Agni-were all directed by Hiranyakasipu alone, without assistance from the demigods.
