ज्वालामालाकुलं कृत्वा जगत्सर्वं चिदामकम् । महारूपधरो रुद्रो व्यतिष्ठत महेश्वरः
jvālāmālākulaṃ kṛtvā jagatsarvaṃ cidāmakam | mahārūpadharo rudro vyatiṣṭhata maheśvaraḥ
ज्वालांच्या माळांनी सर्व जग व्यापून, संपूर्ण विश्व भस्ममय केले. तेव्हा विराट् व भयंकर रूप धारण केलेले रुद्र—महेश्वर—प्रकट होऊन स्थिर झाले.

Scene: A colossal Rudra/Maheśvara manifests, encircled by garlands and arcs of flame; the universe appears as glowing embers, with ash-laden skies and collapsing worlds, yet the deity stands unmoved at the center.
Rudra’s awe-inspiring form reveals the Lord as both destroyer of illusion and sovereign of ultimate reality.
Not explicit here; the verse magnifies Maheśvara’s cosmic sovereignty, often a backdrop to praising sacred geographies in the Revākhaṇḍa.
None.
