Skanda Purana — Avanti Khanda, Shloka 15
कुबेरस्य मनःशल्यं शंसतीव पराभवम् । अपविद्धगतो वायुर्भग्नशाख इव द्रुमः
kuberasya manaḥśalyaṃ śaṃsatīva parābhavam | apaviddhagato vāyurbhagnaśākha iva drumaḥ
L’écharde au cœur de Kubera semble proclamer l’humiliation de la défaite ; et Vāyu, rejeté hors de sa voie, est tel un arbre aux branches brisées.
Brahmā (continuing)
Tirtha: Revā (Narmadā) region context
Type: river
Scene: Kubera sits with downcast eyes, hand near chest as if pierced by a thorn of worry; Vāyu is shown as a dynamic figure halted mid-flight, or as a gust bending a tree whose branches are broken—symbolizing his ‘cast down’ course.
