दैत्यराज त्वमस्माकं सुहृन्मार्गप्रदर्शकः । कथयस्व महाभाग यत्र तिष्ठति केशवः
daityarāja tvamasmākaṃ suhṛnmārgapradarśakaḥ | kathayasva mahābhāga yatra tiṣṭhati keśavaḥ
Ô roi des Daityas, tu es notre ami bienveillant et notre guide sur la voie. Ô grand fortuné, dis-nous où demeure Keśava.
Ṛṣis (Sages)
Tirtha: Dvārakā
Type: kshetra
Scene: Brāhmaṇas respectfully address a regal Daitya-king seated modestly, asking him to reveal where Keśava resides; the atmosphere is surprisingly harmonious.
The wise seek direction from realized devotees; guidance (mārga) is itself a form of grace.
Dvārakā is the implied destination, as the sages ask where Keśava abides.
None; the focus is on inquiry into the Lord’s dwelling-place (sthāna).
