Swamiji narrates the episode of King Ambarish, a devoted follower of Lord Vishnu. While observing the Ekadashi fast, Ambarish sipped water to honor the precise timing, which angered Sage Durvasa. In fury, Durvasa created a fiery demon to destroy him.
At once, the Sudarshan Chakra appeared to protect Ambarish, chasing Durvasa across the universe. Even Brahma and Shiva could not help him. Finally, Durvasa surrendered to Lord Vishnu, who directed him back to Ambarish. With humility and forgiveness, Ambarish pacified the chakra, saving Durvasa.
Swamiji emphasizes that this story shows the supreme power of devotion and surrender: God Himself protects His devotee, and faith in Him assures safety beyond all worldly strength.
