अतिकायवधः
The Slaying of Atikāya
ततोविद्याधराभूतादेवादैत्यामहर्षयः ।।।।गुह्यकाश्चमहात्मानस्तद्युद्धंद्रष्टुमागमन् ।
tato vidyādharā bhūtā devā daityā maharṣayaḥ | guhyakāś ca mahātmānas tad yuddhaṃ draṣṭum āgaman ||
Kemudian para Vidyādhara, para Bhūta, para Dewa, kaum Daitya, para maharṣi, serta para Guhyaka yang mulia datang untuk menyaksikan peperangan itu.
Then vidhyadharas, demons, devatas, daityas, sages and great guhyakas arrived at the battlefield to witness.
A dharmic struggle is portrayed as significant enough to draw cosmic witnesses, implying moral weight and accountability before the universe.
As the duel escalates, various celestial and semi-celestial beings gather to watch the confrontation.
Not a single virtue, but the gravity of righteous conflict: the scene frames the duel as momentous within the moral order.
