महादेव उवाच । कथं व्यग्राः सुराः सर्वे बृहस्पतिपुरोगमाः । तत्समाचक्ष्व मां ब्रह्मन्भवतां दुःखकारणम्
mahādeva uvāca | kathaṃ vyagrāḥ surāḥ sarve bṛhaspatipurogamāḥ | tatsamācakṣva māṃ brahmanbhavatāṃ duḥkhakāraṇam
ମହାଦେବ କହିଲେ—“ବୃହସ୍ପତିଙ୍କୁ ଅଗ୍ରେ ରଖି ସମସ୍ତ ଦେବତା କାହିଁକି ବ୍ୟାକୁଳ? ହେ ବ୍ରହ୍ମନ୍ (ବ୍ରହ୍ମା), ତୁମମାନଙ୍କ ଦୁଃଖର କାରଣ ମୋତେ କୁହ।”
Śiva (Mahādeva)
Scene: Mahādeva addresses Brahmā directly, noticing the gods’ agitation; Bṛhaspati stands forward; the devas’ faces show worry while Shiva remains composed.
Divine governance begins with inquiry into suffering; dharma is protected through truthful disclosure and right counsel.
No tirtha is directly praised; the verse advances the Dharmāraṇya narrative setting.
None; it is a dialogue prompt requesting the cause of distress.
