pratyakhyatah sa tenapi

 satadhanva maha-manim

tasmin nyasyasvam aruhya

 sata-yojana-gam yayau

 

Translation: 

 

His appeal thus rejected by Akrura also, Satadhanva placed the precious jewel in Akrura’s care and fled on a horse that could travel one hundred yojanas [eight hundred miles].

 

Purport: 

 

The term nyasya, “leaving in the care of,” implies Satadhanva now believed the jewel was his; thus he was leaving it in the care of a friend. In blunt terms, this is a thief’s mentality.
