Shloka 34
प्रलय-प्रक्रिया (Pralaya Process) — Guṇa-Withdrawal and Pratisaṃcara
यथेष्टं गच्छ दैत्येन्द्र स्वस्ति तेडस्तु महासुर । आदित्यो नैव तपिता कदाचिन्मध्यत: स्थित:
yatheṣṭaṃ gaccha daityendra svasti te ’stu mahāsura | ādityo naiva tapitā kadācin madhyataḥ sthitaḥ ||
শক্র বললেন—দৈত্যেন্দ্র! তোমার ইচ্ছামতো যাও। মহাসুর! তোমার মঙ্গল হোক। সূর্য আর কখনও মধ্যাহ্নে অবস্থান করে লোকসমূহকে দগ্ধ করবে না।

Educational Q&A
Even amid rivalry, a righteous settlement limits collateral suffering: authority is exercised through a binding promise that protects the world from excessive harm (the Sun’s unbearable midday heat).
Śakra (Indra) dismisses the Daitya leader with a blessing and grants him leave to go as he wishes, while also declaring a specific assurance about the Sun’s behavior—he will not scorch the worlds from the zenith—signaling a concluded pact or boon.
