Adhyaya 82 — The Rise of Mahishasura and the Manifestation of the Goddess from the Gods’ Tejas
दृष्ट्वा समस्तं संक्षुब्धं त्रैलोक्यममरारयः ।
सन्नद्धाखिलसैन्यास्ते समुत्तस्थुरुदायुधाः ॥
dṛṣṭvā samastaṃ saṃkṣubdhaṃ trailokyam amarārayaḥ |
sannaddhākhila-sainyās te samuttasthur udāyudhāḥ ||
முழு மும்மையுலகமும் கலங்கியதைப் பார்த்து, தேவர்களின் பகைவரான அசுரர்கள் தங்கள் எல்லாப் படைகளையும் ஆயத்தப்படுத்தி, ஆயுதம் கையில் கொண்டு எழுந்தனர்।

When adharma swells, it disturbs not merely society but the cosmic order (trailokya). The verse frames evil as reactive—arming itself when the Divine presence becomes unmistakable.
Primarily within Vaṃśānucarita/Carita-style narrative (descriptive sacred history) rather than Sarga/Pratisarga. It is a theologically charged episode embedded in the Purāṇic narrative stream.
‘Three worlds in upheaval’ signals a total psycho-cosmic disruption when the egoic/daemonic principle confronts Śakti; the arming of the asuras symbolizes the mind’s intensification of resistance at the threshold of transformation.
