FAQs
The verse reports that an unnamed male figure (“he”) addressed the devas; the specific identity is not stated in the provided line alone and requires surrounding verses for certainty.
It implies an act of strengthening or increasing—here, specifically the increase of the devas’ tejas (radiance, power, spiritual brilliance).
The line frames divine support as the enhancement of inner and outer “splendor” (tejas), suggesting that rightful empowerment is portrayed as a purposeful, guided augmentation rather than mere domination.
