त्वं धाता सर्वलोकानां पिता माता त्वमीश्वरः । कृपया परया युक्तः पाह्यस्मांस्त्वं महेश्वर
tvaṃ dhātā sarvalokānāṃ pitā mātā tvamīśvaraḥ | kṛpayā parayā yuktaḥ pāhyasmāṃstvaṃ maheśvara
నీవే సమస్త లోకాల ధాతవు; నీవే తండ్రి, నీవే తల్లి—నీవే ఈశ్వరుడు. పరమ కరుణతో యుక్తుడై, ఓ మహేశ్వరా, మమ్మల్ని రక్షించుము।
Brahmā
Tirtha: Kedāra
Type: kshetra
Listener: Maheśvara (Śiva)
Scene: Brahmā’s voice turns intimate: before the majestic Lord, he confesses dependence—‘You are father and mother’—and pleads for protection, with the assembly softened into quiet reverence.
Śiva is the complete refuge—creator and caregiver; devotion is fulfilled as a heartfelt request for protection rooted in compassion.
Kedāra, as the sacred theater of divine supplication and grace.
A direct śaraṇāgati-prārthanā (prayer of surrender) is modeled: “pāhi asmān”—seek the Lord’s protection.
