Gaṇanātha-Parākrama (Episode of Gaṇeśa’s Martial Exploit) — Lalitopākhyāna Battle Continuation
तथा बभूव तुमुलं युद्धं शक्तिसुरद्विषाम् / यथा मृत्युरवित्रस्तः प्रजाः संहरते स्वयम्
tathā babhūva tumulaṃ yuddhaṃ śaktisuradviṣām / yathā mṛtyuravitrastaḥ prajāḥ saṃharate svayam
Thus arose a tumultuous war between the Śaktis and the haters of the Devas, like Death himself who, unafraid, gathers up beings with his own hand.
