Śaṅkarācārya's commentary
Janārdana is so called because He sends the Asuras, those people who are the enemies of the Gods, to hell and the like; or because He is prayed to by all people for worldly success and salvation. Tell me again of them, though described before; for, there is no satiety in hearing the immortal (ambrosia) of the speech issuing from Thy mouth.
