ພຣະອົງແມ່ນແຂນຊ້າຍຂອງຂ້າພະເຈົ້າ ແລະປິຕາມະຫະ (ພຣະພຣົມ) ນັ້ນແມ່ນແຂນຂວາ. ແທ້ຈິງ ພຣະອົງຈະເປັນທັງຜູ້ປົກປ້ອງ ແລະໃນນັຍໜຶ່ງ ຈະເປັນຜູ້ໃຫ້ກຳເນີດແກ່ຜູ້ບັນດານ (ພຣະພຣົມ) ຜູ້ນີ້ດ້ວຍ.
Śiva (Hara)
Tirtha: Kāśī
Type: kshetra
Listener: Śaunaka and other Ṛṣis (contextual)
Scene: A symbolic cosmic body: the speaker identifies Viṣṇu as the left arm and Brahmā as the right; Brahmā appears as the ordained creator, while Viṣṇu stands as protector, all within a single radiant mandala suggesting one integrated divinity.
The Purāṇic vision presents coordinated divine functions—protection, creation, and governance—within a unified sacred order.
The verse occurs within the Kāśīkhaṇḍa, whose central glorification is Kāśī as a supreme liberating realm.
No ritual instruction appears; it is theological, describing divine roles and relationships.
