कर्णेन युधिष्ठिरानीकविदारणम् / Karṇa’s Breach of Yudhiṣṭhira’s Battle-Line
एवं प्रयाते देवेशे लोकानामभयंकरे । तुष्टमासीज्जगतू सर्व देवताश्न नरोत्तम
evaṁ prayāte deveśe lokānām abhayam-kare | tuṣṭam āsīj jagat sarvaṁ devatāś ca nara-uttama nara-śreṣṭha ||
قال بهيشما: «يا خيرَ الرجال! لما انصرف مهاديڤا، ربُّ الآلهة—مانحُ الأمان لكل العوالم—على هذا النحو، عمَّ الرضا أرجاءَ الكون. وفرحت الآلهة فرحًا عظيمًا.»

The verse highlights the ethical and spiritual ideal of ‘abhaya’—the removal of fear. A righteous divine presence is portrayed as one that protects and reassures all beings; when such protection is affirmed, harmony and contentment arise in the world.
Bhīṣma narrates that after Mahādeva (Śiva), described as the giver of fearlessness to the worlds, departs, the entire world becomes satisfied and the gods rejoice—signaling that the divine intervention or assurance has successfully restored confidence and order.
