Educational Q&A
The verse highlights awe before extraordinary power and the disciplined use of strength: true greatness inspires reverence and restraint, not harm—Gālava’s praise frames Garuḍa’s might as majestic rather than destructive.
Gālava addresses Garuḍa during a sky-journey, marveling that the wind from Garuḍa’s wingbeats is so forceful it seems to pull the entire earth—oceans, mountains, and forests—toward him.
