अर्जुनश्वापि तं देवं॑ भूयो भूयो5प्यवन्दत । ज्ञात्वा तं सर्वभूतादिं भूतभव्यभवोद्धवम्,अर्जुनने भी उन्हें समस्त भूतोंका आदि कारण और भूत, भविष्य एवं वर्तमान जगत्का उत्पादक जानकर बारंबार उन महादेवजीके चरणोंमें प्रणाम किया
Transliteration
arjunaś cāpi taṃ devaṃ bhūyo bhūyo 'py avandata | jñātvā taṃ sarvabhūtādiṃ bhūtabhavyabhavodbhavam ||
Translation
Sanjaya said: Arjuna too bowed again and again to that divine Lord. Recognizing him as the primal source of all beings and as the one from whom the worlds of past, present, and future arise, Arjuna repeatedly offered reverent salutations at Mahādeva’s feet—an act of humility and devotion amid the violence of war.
