ते प्रगृह्ा महाघोरान् पर्वतान् परिघान् द्रुमान् विक्षोभयन्त: सलिलमुत्थितं शतयोजनम्
te pragṛhya mahāghorān parvatān parighān drumān vikṣobhayantaḥ salilam utthitaṃ śatayojanam |
তেওঁলোকে মহাভয়ংকৰ পৰ্বত, পৰিঘ আৰু গছ হাতে লৈ জলক এনেদৰে ক্ষুব্ধ কৰিলে যে সি শত যোজন উচ্চলৈ উথলি উঠিল; তাৰ পাছত সেই ভয়ানক অস্ত্ৰ লৈ দেৱতাসকলৰ ওপৰত ঝাঁপাই পৰিল।

When oppression becomes unbearable, seeking rightful protection under a legitimate guardian (here, Indra as lord of the gods) is portrayed as an appropriate response; power used without restraint leads to fear and disorder, while refuge under dharmic authority restores stability.
A host of Dānavas, wielding mountains, iron clubs, and trees, violently churns a lake so its waters rise immensely and then assaults the gods; after being severely harassed, the gods retreat and take shelter with Indra.
