दैत्योंमें प्रह्लाद और गणना करनेवालोंमें काल मैं हूँ। अनुभव तब स्पष्ट होता है जब उसे किसी एक घटना का आकस्मिक संयोग न मानकर एक नियम की तरह देखा जाए। यह पंक्ति उसी नियम को इस प्रसंग में रखती है।
A modern parallel offered for reflection. It is not part of the scripture, and it has not been checked against the original sources it may allude to.
