तात्पर्य
Śrīla Śrīdhara Svāmī provides evidence from the sage Parāśara, as quoted in the Viṣṇu Purāṇa (5.29.31), to the effect that there were actually 16,100 royal maidens imprisoned in Bhauma’s palace:
kanyā-pure sa kanyānāṁ
ṣoḍaśātulya-vikramaḥ
śatādhikāni dadṛśe
sahasrāṇi mahā-mate
“Within the maidens’ quarters, O wise one, that Lord of unequaled prowess found 16,100 princesses.”
Another relevant verse from the Viṣṇu Purāṇa (5.29.9) is as follows:
deva-siddhāsurādīnāṁ
nṛpānāṁ ca janārdana
hṛtvā hi so ’suraḥ kanyā
rurodha nija-mandire
“The demon [Bhaumāsura] kidnapped the unmarried daughters of demigods, siddhas, asuras and kings, O Janārdana, and imprisoned them in his palace.”
