Educational Q&A

What is the core teaching?

The passage highlights how contact with the divine or the extraordinary can transform a place and the hearts of the wise: true spiritual wonder (adbhuta) evokes reverence, joy, and devotional emotion rather than skepticism or pride.

What is happening in the narrative?

Celestial beings (Siddhas and Cāraṇas) rejoice and beautify a mountain region; the locale becomes lively again with elephants and many birds. The sages witness this inconceivable marvel and respond with amazement, goosebumps, and tears of joy.
