# Srimad Bhagavatam Canto 4 Chapter 8 Text 24

**[Śrīmad Bhāgavatam Canto 4 Chapter 8 Text 24](http://www.vedabase.com/en/sb/4/8/24/)**

 

*
maitreya uvāca
evaṁ sañjalpitaṁ mātur
ākarṇyārthāgamaṁ vacaḥ
sanniyamyātmanātmānaṁ
niścakrāma pituḥ purāt
* 

TRANSLATION
The great sage Maitreya continued: The instruction of Dhruva Mahārāja’s mother, Sunīti, was actually meant for fulfilling his desired objective. Therefore, after deliberate consideration and with intelligence and fixed determination, he left his father’s house.
