Shloka 156
Yudhiṣṭhira’s Procession, Encampment (Niveśa), and Auspicious Timing for Ritual Action
ते च वश्या भविष्यन्ति प्रसन्ने वृषभध्वजे । 'जो रौद्ररूपधारी किन्नर उस धनकी रक्षा करते हैं, वे भी भगवान् शंकरके प्रसन्न होनेपर हमारे अधीन हो जायँगे
te ca vaśyā bhaviṣyanti prasanne vṛṣabhadhvaje |
„Und auch sie werden gefügig werden, sobald Vṛṣabhadhvaja (Śiva, dessen Banner den Stier trägt) zufrieden ist. Selbst die furchtgestaltigen Kinnaras, die jenen Reichtum bewachen, werden uns untertan sein, wenn Bhagavān Śaṅkara gnädig gestimmt ist.“

Educational Q&A
True mastery and security are portrayed as arising from divine favor—when Śiva is pleased, even powerful beings become compliant; ethical power is linked to dharmic alignment and grace rather than mere coercion.
Vaiśampāyana states that ‘they too’ will come under control when Śiva (Vṛṣabhadhvaja) is pleased, implying that formidable guardians or obstacles will yield once Śiva’s favor is obtained.
