वीरभद्रं यदा शक्रो हंतुकामस्त्वरान्वितः । तावच्छंक्रं गजस्थं हि पुरयामास मार्गणैः
vīrabhadraṃ yadā śakro haṃtukāmastvarānvitaḥ | tāvacchaṃkraṃ gajasthaṃ hi purayāmāsa mārgaṇaiḥ
ពេលឥន្ទ្រា (សក្រ) ចង់សម្លាប់វីរភទ្រ ដោយប្រញាប់រហ័ស ក៏នៅវេលានោះទេ ព្រះអង្គបានបាញ់ព្រួញជាច្រើនដង បំពេញលើអ្នកជិះដំរី។
Lomaharṣaṇa (Sūta), narrating to the sages (deduced from Māheśvarakhaṇḍa style)
Tirtha: Kedāra/Kedārakṣetra
Type: kshetra
Scene: Indra, intent on killing, unleashes volleys of arrows at the elephant-mounted foe; the air is thick with shafts, banners, and dust.
Haste and the desire to dominate lead to aggressive action; Purāṇic narrative uses such scenes to caution against pride opposed to divine order.
Kedārakhaṇḍa context points to the Kedāra tīrtha-region; this verse is a battle description within that larger māhātmya.
None.
