नान्यैरधिष्ठितं भद्र यद्भ्राजिष्णु ध्रुवक्षिति । यत्र ग्रहर्क्षताराणां ज्योतिषां चक्रमाहितम् ॥ २० ॥ मेढ्यां गोचक्रवत्स्थास्नु परस्तात्कल्पवासिनाम् । धर्मोऽग्नि: कश्यप: शुक्रो मुनयो ये वनौकस: । चरन्ति दक्षिणीकृत्य भ्रमन्तो यत्सतारका: ॥ २१ ॥
nānyair adhiṣṭhitaṁ bhadra yad bhrājiṣṇu dhruva-kṣiti yatra graharkṣa-tārāṇāṁ jyotiṣāṁ cakram āhitam
The Supreme Personality of Godhead continued: My dear Dhruva, I shall award you the glowing planet known as the polestar, which will continue to exist even after the dissolution at the end of the millennium. No one has ever ruled this planet, which is surrounded by all the solar systems, planets and stars. All the luminaries in the sky circumambulate this planet, just as bulls tread around a central pole for the purpose of crushing grains. Keeping the polestar to their right, all the stars inhabited by the great sages like Dharma, Agni, Kaśyapa and Śukra circumambulate this planet, which continues to exist even after the dissolution of all others.
