alaṁ prajābhiḥ sṛṣṭābhir īdṛśībhiḥ surottama mayā saha dahantībhir diśaś cakṣurbhir ulbaṇaiḥ
ព្រះព្រហ្មា បានមានព្រះបន្ទូលទៅកាន់រុទ្រៈថា៖ ឱ ព្រះដ៏ប្រសើរនៅក្នុងចំណោមទេវតា ការបង្កើតប្រជាជនប្រភេទនេះគ្រប់គ្រាន់ហើយ។ ពួកគេកំពុងដុតបំផ្លាញគ្រប់ទិសដោយអគ្គីភ័យដ៏ខ្លាំងពីភ្នែក ហើយថែមទាំងវាយប្រហារខ្ញុំផង។
FAQs
This verse shows Brahmā restraining further creation of a fierce type of progeny because their nature was burning and destabilizing—teaching that even cosmic creation must be governed by balance and purpose.
In the narrative of Canto 3, Chapter 12, Brahmā observes that the beings produced in this line are excessively fierce; addressing Rudra as “best of the gods,” he indicates that such creation should be checked to protect the order of the universe.
Pause actions that intensify anger, conflict, or harm; choose creation—projects, speech, leadership—that supports harmony rather than “burning the directions” through uncontrolled intensity.
