Als Gajānana dies sah, erblickte er den erhabenen Bhṛgu, der im Zorn die Axt schleuderte; zum eigenen Schutz hob er die Axt mit seiner Hand empor und führte ihn mit raschem Schwung durch Bhūrloka, Bhuvaḥ und Svarga, dann hinauf nach Maharloka, Vaijana-loka, Tapoloka, Satyaloka und sogar bis zum höchsten Vaikuṇṭha.
