Atithi-satkāra and the Consolation of Wise Counsel (अतिथिसत्कारः प्रज्ञानवचनस्य च पराश्वासनम्)
ब्रह्मणा त्वेवमुक्तस्तु रुद्र: क्रोधाग्निमुत्सूजन् । प्रसादयामास ततो देवं नारायण प्रभुम् शरणं च जगामाद्यं वरेण्यं वरदं प्रभुम्ू
brahmaṇā tvevam uktas tu rudraḥ krodhāgnim utsṛjan | prasādayāmāsa tato devaṃ nārāyaṇa-prabhuṃ śaraṇaṃ ca jagāmādyaṃ vareṇyaṃ varadaṃ prabhum ||
ബ്രഹ്മാവ് ഇങ്ങനെ പറഞ്ഞപ്പോൾ രുദ്രദേവൻ തന്റെ ക്രോധാഗ്നി ഉപേക്ഷിച്ചു. തുടർന്ന് ആദിദേവൻ, വരണീയൻ, വരദാതാവ്, സർവ്വശക്തനായ ഭഗവാൻ നാരായണനെ പ്രസന്നനാക്കി, അവനിൽ തന്നെ ശരണം പ്രാപിച്ചു.
अर्जुन उवाच
Anger, even when powerful, should be relinquished; true resolution comes through humility and taking refuge in the highest divine principle (Nārāyaṇa), aligning oneself again with dharma and peace.
After Brahmā speaks to him, Rudra releases his wrath (“fire of anger”), then propitiates Lord Nārāyaṇa and seeks His protection, signaling a turn from conflict to reconciliation and devotion.
