Shloka 13
Omens and Consolation after Loss; Reaffirmation of the Saindhava Punishment Vow (उत्पात-दर्शनम्, आश्वासन-वाक्यानि, प्रतिज्ञा-स्थैर्यम्)
तृष्णीमासीत् तदा देव: प्रजानामीश्ररेश्वर: । प्रसाद चागमत् क्षिप्रमात्मनैव प्रजापति:,तब प्रजेश्वरोंके भी स्वामी भगवान् ब्रह्मा चुप हो गये। फिर वे भगवान् प्रजापति तुरंत अपने-आप ही प्रसन्नताको प्राप्त हुए
tṛṣṇīm āsīt tadā devaḥ prajānām īśvareśvaraḥ | prasādaṃ cāgamat kṣipram ātmanā eva prajāpatiḥ ||
Alors le Seigneur divin—souverain même des souverains des créatures—demeura silencieux. Peu après, Prajāpati (Brahmā) recouvra la sérénité et la faveur par sa propre maîtrise intérieure.

Educational Q&A
The verse highlights that true prasāda—clarity, calm, and grace—can arise from within through self-restraint and inner steadiness; silence here signals mastery over agitation rather than helplessness.
Nārada reports that the supreme divine authority became silent, and soon Prajāpati (Brahmā), without external intervention, regained composure and attained a state of favor/serenity.
