अब्रवीदथ तं वायुं विनयावनतं स्थितम् । किमर्थं त्वमिहायातः कच्चित्क्षेमं दिवौकसाम्
abravīdatha taṃ vāyuṃ vinayāvanataṃ sthitam | kimarthaṃ tvamihāyātaḥ kaccitkṣemaṃ divaukasām
Dann sprach er zu Vāyu, der dort demütig verneigt stand: „Aus welchem Grund bist du hierher gekommen? Geht es den Himmelsbewohnern wohl?“
Śiva (Mahādeva/Bhagavān)
Scene: A serene yet tense mountain ledge: Vāyu stands bowed, palms lowered, while the Lord addresses him with composed authority; distant devas appear anxious in the background.
Śiva’s first concern is kṣema (welfare) of beings; divine authority is inseparable from compassion and guardianship.
Kailāsa is the setting of the divine audience; no distinct tīrtha is named in this verse.
None; it is a dialogic turning point in the narrative.
