Translation

அப்போது ஹரி, இந்திரன் முதலிய தேவர்கள் அவரைத் துதித்தனர்; ரம்பை முதலிய அப்சரஸ்கள் நடனம் செய்தனர். எல்லா வாத்தியங்களும் ஒலிக்க, அமரர்கள் உரக்கப் பாடினர்—“சாது! சாது!”

FAQs

Righteous victory and divine purpose are affirmed by the gods themselves; dharma is celebrated, not merely achieved.

No specific tīrtha is named in this verse; it is a narrative moment within the Kaumārikākhaṇḍa’s Skanda-centered account.

None directly—this verse describes stuti (praise), nṛtya (dance), and vādyaghoṣa (instrumental music) as celebratory acts.
