Vaitaraṇī-tīrtha and the Devayāna Path
Kaliṅga Episode
अयातयामं सर्वेभ्यो भागेभ्यो भागमुत्तमम् । देवा: संकल्पयामासुर्भयाद् रुद्रस्य शाश्वतम्,'देवताओंने रुद्रदेवके भयसे उनके लिये शीघ्र ही सब भागोंकी अपेक्षा उत्तम एवं सनातन भाग देनेका संकल्प किया”
ayātayāmaṃ sarvebhyo bhāgebhyo bhāgam uttamam | devāḥ saṅkalpayāmāsur bhayād rudrasya śāśvatam ||
Ломаша сказал: Из страха перед Рудрой боги постановили немедля даровать ему долю, превосходящую все прочие, — вечный и первенствующий удел.

Educational Q&A
Power and rightful status must be acknowledged through proper honor and due allotment; neglecting what is owed can destabilize order, while timely recognition restores harmony.
Lomaśa narrates that the gods, fearing Rudra’s might, decide to grant him a superior and everlasting share among all sacrificial portions, thereby affirming his preeminence.
