ପ୍ରମଥେଶ୍ୱରମାନଙ୍କ ପାଇଁ ସେଇ ଯୁଦ୍ଧ-ଯଜ୍ଞ ଆଶ୍ଚର୍ଯ୍ୟରୂପେ ଚାଲିଥିବାବେଳେ, ଭାର୍ଗବଙ୍କ କର୍ମ ଦେଖି କ୍ରୋଧିତ ଶିଲାଦପୁତ୍ର ନନ୍ଦୀ ମହେଶଙ୍କ ନିକଟକୁ ଗଲେ।
Skanda (narrating to Agastya, per Kāśī-khaṇḍa convention)
Tirtha: Kāśī
Type: kshetra
Scene: A wondrous ‘battle-sacrifice’ unfolds; pramatha-lords watch in amazement. Nandī, son of Śilāda, angered by Śukra’s act, strides toward Maheśa to report/seek intervention.
When adharma gains advantage, devotion expresses itself as swift recourse to the Lord and disciplined response.
The Kāśī-khaṇḍa context frames the episode within Kāśī’s Śaiva sanctity, though no single tīrtha is named in this verse.
None; “battle as sacrifice” is a poetic framing, not a ritual injunction here.
