ಹೇ ವೈಕುಂಠ, ನಮ್ಮ ದೇವರನ್ನು ರಕ್ಷಿಸು; ನಾವು ನಮ್ಮ ಸ್ಥಾನದಿಂದ ಒಂದು ಹೊಡೆತದಿಂದ ಹೊರಹಾಕಲ್ಪಟ್ಟಿದ್ದೇವೆ—ಮಹೇಂದ್ರನ ಕ್ರೋಧದಿಂದ ಹುಟ್ಟಿ, ರುದ್ರತೇಜಸ್ಸಿನಿಂದ ಉದ್ಭವಿಸಿದವನಿಂದ.
Devas (petitioning Nārāyaṇa)
Tirtha: Prabhāsa-kṣetra (śaraṇāgati before Vaikuṇṭha)
Type: kshetra
Scene: Devas, visibly shaken, plead before Vaikuṇṭha (Nārāyaṇa), describing their expulsion by a fierce being born from Indra’s wrath and Rudra’s fiery energy.
When overwhelmed, even the mighty turn to the Supreme Refuge; surrender and truthful confession of distress are themselves dharmic.
Prabhāsa Kṣetra, the sacred arena where the Devas approach Nārāyaṇa for deliverance.
No specific ritual is stated; the focus is śaraṇāgati—seeking divine shelter through prayer.
