Maitreya said: The Lord called Kapila, the supreme person, praised thus, spoke to his mother out of affection for her, with choked voice.
With choked voice because of affection for his mother, Kapila replied.

Since the Lord is all-perfect, His exhibition of affection for His mother was also complete. After hearing the words of His mother, He most respectfully, with due gravity and good manners, replied.
