कपालीशादयो रुद्रा विद्रावितमहाऽसुराः । कपाली पिंगलो भीमो विरुपाक्षो विलोहितः
kapālīśādayo rudrā vidrāvitamahā'surāḥ | kapālī piṃgalo bhīmo virupākṣo vilohitaḥ
Para Rudra—bermula dari Kapālīśa—yang telah menghalau para Asura besar, tampak berdiri: Kapālī, Piṅgala, Bhīma, Virūpākṣa, dan Vilohita.
Narrator (Sūta/Lomaharṣaṇa) (deduced)
Scene: A victorious line of Rudras, each distinct by expression and hue: Kapālī with skull emblem, Piṅgala tawny, Bhīma massive, Virūpākṣa with uncanny eyes, Vilohita with reddish radiance—standing over fleeing asuras.
The many forms of Rudra represent focused divine forces that disperse adharma and protect the worlds.
No tīrtha is mentioned; the verse functions as a sacred catalogue of Śaiva powers.
None.
