प्रच्युताः सहसा भांति दिवस्तारागणा इव । दह्यमानाः प्रपन्नास्ते शरणं पावकात्मजम्
pracyutāḥ sahasā bhāṃti divastārāgaṇā iva | dahyamānāḥ prapannāste śaraṇaṃ pāvakātmajam
Tombés soudain, ils brillaient comme des grappes d’étoiles chutant du ciel ; brûlants, ils se rendirent et cherchèrent refuge auprès du fils du Feu.
Lomaharṣaṇa/Sūta (deduced for Māheśvarakhaṇḍa narration)
Scene: Burning deva warriors tumble down, sparkling like falling stars; amid flames and smoke, they fold hands and rush toward the radiant Agni-putra, faces pleading for protection.
When suffering arises, the highest dharma is śaraṇāgati—sincere refuge in the divine.
