## Question
Here is that spacious and celebrated city of cities, called Hiranyapura, belonging to the Daityas and Danavas, possessing a hundred diverse kinds of illusion. Here in these regions called Patala, it hath been built with great care by the divine artificer, and planned by the Danava Maya. Endued with great energy and heroism, many Danavas, having obtained boons (from Brahman) in days of old, lived here, exhibiting a thousand different kinds of illusion. They were incapable of being vanquished by Sakra or any other celestial, that is, by either Yama, or Varuna, or the Lord of treasures (Kuvera). Here dwell, O Matali, those Asuras called Kalakhanjas who sprang from Vishnu, and those Rakshasas also called Yatudhanas who sprang from the feet of Brahman. All of them are endued with frightful teeth, terrible impetus, the speed and prowess of the wind, and great energy depending on powers of illusion. Besides these, another class of Danavas called Nivatakavachas, who are invincible in battle, have their abode here. Thou knowest bow Sakra is unable to vanquish them. Many times, O Matali, thou, with thy son Gomukha, and the chief of the celestials and lord of Sachi, along with his son, had to retreat before them. Behold their homes, O Matali, that are all made of silver and gold, and well-adorned with decorations done according to the rules of art. All those mansions are decked with lapis lazuli and corals, and made effulgent with the lustre of the Arkasphatika, and the radiance of gem called Vajrasara. And many of those palatial residences seem, as if, they have been made of the shine of these gems called Padmaragas, or of bright marble, or of excellent wood. And they are also possessed of the radiance of the sun, or blazing fire. And all the edifices, adorned with gems and jewels, are very high and stand close to another. Of spacious proportions and great architectural beauty, it is impossible to say of what material these mansions are built or to describe their style of beauty. Indeed, they are exceedingly beautiful in consequence of their decorations. Behold these retreats of the Daityas for recreation and sport, these beds of theirs for sleep, these costly utensils of theirs set with precious stones, and these seats also for their use. Behold these hills of theirs, looking like clouds, those fountains of water, these trees also that move of their own will and that yield all fruits and flowers that one may ask. See, O Matali, if any bridegroom may be had here, acceptable to thee. If no one can be found, we shalt, if thou likest, go hence to some other part of the world.’ Thus addressed, Matali answered Narada, saying, ‘O celestial Rishi, it behoveth me not to do anything that may be disagreeable to dwellers of heaven. The gods and the Danavas, though brothers, are ever at hostility with each other. How can I, therefore, make an alliance with those that are our enemies? Let us repair, therefore, to some other place. It behoveth me not to search among the Danavas. As regards thyself, I know thy heart is ever set on fomenting quarrels.’

## Answer
Hearing Matali’s words, Narada replied, ‘O charioteer, why dost thou speak thus? Knowest thou not that a wise man always befriends even his foe if he sees a chance of obtaining advantage? Even the great Indra, though possessed of the greatest power in heaven, never disregards the friendship of the Danava King Bali. And thou, O Matali, art a wise and experienced person. Therefore, do not discard my advice. Let us search among the Danavas for a suitable bridegroom, and then return to heaven with him.’ Matali, convinced by Narada’s reasoning, agreed to his proposal.
p: Thus, Narada and Matali set out to search among the Danavas for a suitable bridegroom for Matali’s daughter. As they traveled through the city, they saw many magnificent palaces and gardens with trees that magically bore fruits and flowers. They also saw the homes of the Kalakhanjas, Yatudhanas, and Nivatakavachas, all adorned with precious stones and jewelry.
p: At last, they came across a young Danava prince named Vidyutjihva, son of the powerful Danava king Maya. He was known for his great strength and bravery, having defeated many powerful enemies in battle. Narada and Matali were impressed by his virtues and decided that he would be a suitable match for Matali’s daughter.
p: They approached

As Narada and Matali continued their search for a suitable bridegroom, they came across a young Danava prince named Vidyutjihva, son of the powerful Danava king Maya.

The gods and the Danavas, though brothers, are ever at hostility with each other. How can I, therefore, make an alliance with those that are our enemies? Let us repair, therefore, to some other place. It behoveth me not to search among the Danavas. As regards thyself, I know thy heart is ever set on fomenting quarrels.’ This region belongeth to the birds, all of whom possess excellent feathers. They all subsist on snakes. They never feel any fatigue in putting forth their prowess, or in making journeys, or in bearing burthens. This race, O charioteer, hath multiplied from the six sons of Garuda. They are Sumukha, Sunaman, Sunetra, Suvarchas, Suanch and that prince of birds called Suvala. Born of Kasyapa’s line and enhancing the glory of Vinata’s race, many winged creatures, the foremost of their species, have by begetting children founded and increased a thousand dynasties of birds, all endued with nobility of blood. All these creatures are endued with great prosperity, have the auspicious whirl called Sreevatsa, possess great wealth, and are inspired with great might. By their acts they may be said to belong to the Kshatriya order, but they are all without any compassion, subsisting as they do on snakes. They never attain to spiritual enlightenment in consequence of their preying on their kinsmen. I will now enumerate the chiefs by their names, listen to me, O Matali. This race is much regarded in consequence of the favour that, is shown to it by Vishnu. They all worship Vishnu, and Vishnu is their protector. Vishnu always dwelleth in their hearts, and Vishnu is their great refuge. These then are their names–Suvarnachuda, Nagasin Daruna, Chandatundaka, Anala, Vaisalaksha, Kundalin, Pankajit, Vajraviskambha, Vainateya, Vamana, Vatavega, Disachakshu, Nimisha, Animisha, Trirava, Saptarava, Valmiki, Dipaka, Daityadwipa, Saridwipa, Sarasa, Padmaketana, Sumukha, Chitraketu, Chitravara, Anagha, Meshahrit, Kumuda, Daksha, Sarpanta, Somabhojana, Gurubhara, Kapota, Suryanetra, Chirantaka, Vishnudharman, Kumara, Parivarha, Hari, Suswara, Madhuparka, Hemavarna, Malaya, Matariswan, Nisakara and Divakara. These sons of Garuda that I name dwell in only a single province of this region. I have mentioned those only that have won distinction by might, fame and achievements. If thou likest none here, come, we will go hence, O Matali. I will take thee to another region where thou mayest find an eligible husband for thy daughter.’

## Answer
Narada listened attentively and said, “O Matali, you speak wisely. It is not wise to seek an alliance among our enemies. Let us go elsewhere, as you suggest.”
p: Matali then pointed out a region belonging to the birds, where many noble and powerful birds lived. Narada described them to Matali and named the most distinguished among them. Matali was not impressed, as the birds were known for their lack of compassion towards their own kind, as they subsisted on snakes.
p: Narada suggested they move on to another region, where they may find a suitable husband for Matali’s daughter. Matali agreed, and they set off on their journey.

Upon hearing Matali’s concerns about seeking an alliance with their enemies, Narada agreed with his reasoning and suggested they move on to another region. Matali then mentioned a region inhabited by birds, specifically a race descended from the six sons of Garuda. These birds were known for their prosperity, great might, and worship of Vishnu. Narada listed the names of several prominent birds in that region, but Matali remained unimpressed due to their lack of compassion and their diet of snakes.
Narada understood Matali’s reservations and proposed they continue their search in another region to find a suitable husband for Matali’s daughter. Matali agreed, and they embarked on their journey to explore new possibilities. If you have any more questions or if there’s anything else I can assist you with, please let me know!
