FAQs

Even cosmic conflicts are ultimately framed within dharma and destiny; contact with divine power (amṛta) changes beings, but does not automatically grant purity or harmony.

The verse occurs within Kedārakhaṇḍa (Kedāra sacred region) as part of a broader Śaiva mahātmya, though this specific line narrates a cosmic episode rather than a local rite.

None is stated in this verse.
