Kṛṣṇasya Dvārakā-praveśaḥ — Krishna’s Return to Dvārakā and the Raivataka Festival
ते धूमरक्तनयना वल्नलितेजोडभितापिता: । आजममुनिश्चियं ज्ञातुं भार्गवस्य महात्मन:
te dhūma-rakta-nayanā vahni-līḍhābhitāpitāḥ | ājagmur muni-niścayaṃ jñātuṃ bhārgavasya mahātmanaḥ ||
Con los ojos enrojecidos por el humo y el cuerpo abrasado por las lenguas de fuego, los Nāgas se reunieron y se acercaron al gran sabio Bhārgava, deseosos de conocer qué determinación había tomado.

Educational Q&A
Distress and danger prompt a search for wise, settled judgment (niścaya) rather than impulsive reaction; the verse highlights the ethical importance of discerning a righteous course when passions and suffering run high.
The Nāgas, afflicted by smoke and fire, gather and go to the great Bhārgava sage to find out what decision he has made—indicating a turning point where his intention will shape what happens to them next.
